Obituary
Lillian Rosenbach, 90, passed away Wednesday, May 8, 2013, in Sterling. Visitation will be from 4 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 15, at Chaney-Reager Funeral Home, with family receiving friends at that time. Funeral services will be at 10 a.m. Thursday, May 16, at First English Lutheran Church, with the Rev. David Loeschke officiating. Interment will be at Sunset Memorial Gardens.
Lillian was born March 6, 1923, in Snyder. In her youthful years, Lillian lived with her parents, John and Lydia Foos, in Hillrose until she left to attend college. Lillian was a member of the first graduating class of Northeastern Junior College in 1943.
She married Allen Rosenbach and had two sons, Jay and Terry.
Lillian spent 32 years as the secretary of Pantall-Stevens Elementary School in Sterling, where over the years she made thousands of friends as the children made their way through the grade levels of the school. She also served as a Sunday school teacher for many years at First English Lutheran Church, where she was a lifelong member. Lillian was a member of the Ladies Guild, BPW, Humanities Club and the Historical Society. She also served as a part-time secretary for her church for 14 years.
Lillian was devoted to the First English Lutheran Church, her numerous school friends, teachers and family. Lillian loved quilting with her ladies group at church, dinners with her special friends, had a talent for ceramics and most of all is remembered by many for her consistent sending of cards and letters to those in need. Lillian had a card or small gift on hand for almost any occasion, for that person who needed a special note of caring or life of loving thoughtfulness for their life.
Survivors include a son, Terry Rosenbach and daughter-in-law Mindy of Lake of the Ozarks (Gravois Mills), Mo.; a son, Jay Rosenbach of Anchorage, Alaska; a brother, Harold Foos and wife Janet of Wheaton, Ill.; two grandchildren, Justin Rosenbach and wife Lisa of Sunrise Beach, Mo., and Alex Rosenbach of Sandy, Utah; four nephews and one niece.
She was pre-deceased by her sister, Natalie Foos Weimer, who was a missionary in Papua New Guinea.
Lillian specified that in lieu of flowers, she would prefer donations made to the memorial fund of the First English Lutheran Church in Sterling. She will be missed by all of those she touched
