Delavan- Nancy J. Rothering, age 83 of Delavan, WI, went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, April 18th after a brief stay at Ascension Health Care.

She was born on October 31, 1936, the daughter of the late Walter and Tena (nee: Van Dyke) Mears. On November 26, 1959 Nancy was united in marriage to Richard Rothering. Nancy held various office jobs, retiring from Johnson Bank. She enjoyed building things using her power tools, landscaping, and working in her gardens filled with flowers and vegetables.

She had many skills and talents that were admired by many including writing, drawing, sewing, knitting, baking, and cooking. We will all miss her cream pies and bombers. Nancy loved the outdoors and spent countless hours driving around visiting with other community members, even though they had not previously met, and enjoyed the simple beauty of nature and animals. She had a passion for owls.

Nancy will be missed and forever remembered by her children, Cindy Linstroth, Vicky (Gary) Kitelinger, Michael Rothering, and Peggy Sue (Don) Smith, her grandchildren, and one great- grandchild. She is further survived by her brother Robert (Grace) Mears, and countless other nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends. She was preceded in death by her husband, as well as her parents.

Private committal services for Nancy will take place at West Lawn Memorial Park. A tree planting and donation of a bench will bring her immediate family together in celebration of her life.

In recognition of Nancy’s love of owls, memorial remembrances may be directed to www.owlresearchinstitute.org.

Nancy’s family wishes to thank Nurse Liz and the other medical personnel who gave their mother the comfort and personal loving care during her stay at Ascension.

Testimonials

Thank you for an exceptional service for our mother – Juan Munoz

My siblings and I recently had the unfortunate experience of having to plan a funeral for our beloved mother – Juana Munoz. During this difficult time, we were fortunate enough to come across a funeral home that truly went above and beyond what was expected. Their attention to detail and dedication to ensuring our comfort and safety throughout the entire process was truly remarkable.

From the moment we stepped foot into the funeral home, we were greeted with warmth and compassion. The staff members, but specifically Mark was incredibly understanding and empathetic, making us feel at ease during such a challenging time. Mark took the time to listen to our needs and wishes, and his guidance and support were invaluable.

One aspect that truly stood out was Mark’s meticulous attention to detail. He paid close attention to every aspect of the funeral arrangements, ensuring that nothing was overlooked. From the floral arrangements to the music selection, every detail was carefully considered and executed flawlessly. Mark even noticed that the temperature in the room was getting warm and promptly adjusted it to ensure our comfort.

What impressed me the most was their commitment to our safety. Mark and his team took every precaution to ensure that our family and guests were protected throughout the entire process. From the funeral home to the cemetery, Mark made sure that all safety measures were in place, including providing hand sanitizers, and even arranging for additional staff members to assist with crowd control.

Furthermore, Mark’s professionalism and organization was evident in every aspect of the funeral service. He coordinated seamlessly with the cemetery staff, ensuring a smooth transition from the funeral home to the final resting place. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellence truly made a difference in our overall experience.

In addition to their exceptional service, the funeral home also provided us with resources and support beyond the funeral itself. They offered grief counseling services and connected us with local support groups, which proved to be invaluable during our grieving process.

Overall, we cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service provided by Mark and broader Draeger Langendorf team. Their attention to detail, commitment to our safety, and genuine compassion made a difficult time a little more bearable. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of funeral arrangements, as they truly go above and beyond to ensure that every detail is taken care of and that families are supported throughout the entire process.

– Epifanio and The Munoz Family
