Please accept my condolences over the passing of Josephine. It was a joy to read the tributes posted about your mother. Truly, a life lived well! It was an honor and privilege to care for her. May God bless each of her family members.

All our love and hugs to the entire Rasch Family. As I listened to the priest at momma Rasch's service this morning, I glanced over and saw the beautiful sight of her nine children, sister, in laws, grand babies and great grand's, and I thought "wow...what a legacy, what a wonderful testament to her presence on earth, God blessed her with them and them with her!" And then, the priest talked about her faith, and how there was no doubt she had passed that on to her family, belief in God, in the Savior and eternity. What more could a mom ask for?!! She had a gentle strength, and I for one will always remember with fondness the times I was blessed to be hugged by your mom and truly feel the Lord coming through her! I know her prayers had impact on my life and I am grateful!!
I love you Mary, Linda, Kay, Tom, Michael, Susie, Laura, Margaret and George! We will continue to raise prayers for your families and each of you in the coming days. Mom is good - absent from the body means in the presence of the Lord!!! God's peace to you all.....
From the heart - Robin and John Smalley

Dear MaryJo and Family,
We loved your Mama because of You! All the funny, sweet, special stories that you have shared with us over the years about her, made her come to life in our hearts as well!
We wrap all of you in God's comfort and peace as you honor your Mom in saying goodbye....until you see her again.
How comforting to know that when I come to the end of this well-known path,
I shall find a gate opening before me; In joyful expectation I shall step through,
and hear behind me the gentle closing of the latch.....One journey has ended and the next one has begun.
We are with you in spirit and love you to the moon and back!
Love,
The Kapan Family
Ps She will always be Pocket Mama to me. xoxoox

With our Love and Friendship,

Josephine Rasch was just about the most beautiful person ever. She always had a smile for you and shared memories of her past. Josephine was a member of the EOUV Ladies Auxiliary (The Gottscheer Club) in Russell township. The Ladies will miss her and we pray for her departed soul. May she rest in peace and meet her departed husband Marvin in heaven. Michael said that before his mother died, she had a smile on her face, the smile was because she already saw Jesus Christ and her beloved husband Marvin. to the family of Josephine the EOUV members send out their deepest sympathy and thanks for being with us for so many years. You were a lovely lady with so many wonderful children. loved you in life and we will love you for eternity.
Hilde Kobetitsch, President of the Ladies Auxiliary of the EOUV club.
