"Mrs. Theresa Rosbeck (hand-dated Jan. 20 - 1981)
Mrs. Theresa Rosbeck, 83, of Menomonee Falls, a former resident of West Bend and St. Kilian, passed away at the Menomonee Falls Nursing Home where she had been a resident for six weeks.
Mrs. Rosbeck was born February 2, 1897, at Theresa Station, Dodge County, to the late Peter and Margaret Steinmetz Kiefer. On May 8, 1923, she married Martin Rosbeck, who passed away on February 4, 1973.
She was a member of the St. Kilian Married Ladies Sodality, the American Legion Auxiliary, the VFW Auxiliary and was a Gold Star Mother.
Survivors include one daughter, Margaret (William) Brill of Menomonee Falls; two sons, Ralph (Delores) and Norbert (Sharon), both of West Bend; a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Audrey Rosbeck of Theresa; 26 grandchildren; 16 great-grandchildren; two sisters-in-law, Mrs. Bella Kiefer of West Bend and Mrs. Helen Rosbeck of Mayville; other relatives and friends. Three sons, two brothers and two sisters preceded her in death.
Visitation at Miller's Funeral Home, Kewaskum, will be after 4 p.m. Thursday, with a rosary vigil at 8 p.m. Services Friday at 10 a.m. at St. Kilian Catholic Church, St. Kilian, with Fr. Joseph McDonald officiating. Burial will be in the church cemetery.
Newspaper clippings were passed on to me by my mother-in-law, Dolores Cayemberg nee Kuehl. They were collected by her mother, Leona Kuehl nee Boegel. Unknown which Wisconsin paper they were clipped, but most likely from the Brown and/or Fond du Lac county areas.
Update - While I still don't know which newspaper this clipping was taken from, a copy was also published in The Reporter (Fond du Lac) on January 21, 1981 on page 28. The title is formatted differently so I know it's not the paper for the original clipping.
