Faye Marjorie Bauske passed away on January 6, 2014 after a short respiratory illness. She was born on February 20, 1931 in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. Her early childhood was spent in Gleenwood City Wisconsin. Her father, John Koberstein, died when she was 7 and her mother, Mary Sand Koberstein, returned to college to obtain a teaching degree. Faye was raised by several different relatives and eventually was re-united with her mother after the mother's graduation. The two then lived in a series of Wisconsin small towns as her mother obtained better teaching positions.
She graduated from the high school in Marinette, Wisconsin and received a scholarship to Lawrence College in nearby Appleton, Wisconsin. There she met her future husband Kenneth Bauske. Their long and loving marriage spanned 58 years. They had three children: Ann Fuchs and Husband Bradley of Spring, Ellen Bauske of Griffin, GA., and Kurt Bauske and wife Brenda of Tomball. She is survived by 5 grandchildren: Kyle and Maggie Fuchs, Mary and Martha Sikora, and Kurt Hermann Bauske.
Her life was filled with family, caring for elderly family members, always volunteering where needed, tutoring the children of Hispanic migrant farm workers, serving many years on church mission board, and teaching her pressed flower art. She loved all things related to art and for many years sold her creations as the owner of Faye's Flowers in Arlington Heights, Illinois. She was a lifetime member of PEO.
There will be a graveside service for family members.

It is with a heavy heart that we send you our condolences and love. We are fortunate to have shared so many special times together over the past sixteen years with all of you.
Frequently when we came home, we'd find one of Faye's beautiful flowered notes often with a recipe or two from our visits waiting for us. She was caring and so generous. Our handmade treasures include Christmas ornaments, spring and winter pictures and her wonderfully delightful "Aloha" card sent just before we left for Hawaii. When we were all together this spring, I thanked her again for that card and with her eyes twinkling, she said, "That was such fun!"
We will miss her but will always keep her in our hearts.

My condolences for your loss. Wishing your family peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead, and loving memories to forever hold in your hands. May God continue to comfort you and your family (Psalm 9:9,10).

Dear Ken, Ann, Ellen, and Kurt,
There are so many memories for me that I will always treasure. Your mom was a beautiful person inside and out. I have thought back to all those kitchen time conversations throughout the years. Faye was such a good listener to every word. She was never afraid to ask questions nor put in a quiet opinion. What a wise and kind women. Her giggles are still so vivid to me even now. I was fortunate to have her and your entire family in my life. Thank you so much. I treasure her pictures and it was a pleasure having her in my life. Love Missy

My condolences on the loss of Faye. She was a special lady.
She was somewhat like a second mother to me in high school. So many enjoyable memories of hanging out and trying to not cause too much trouble
at the Bauske home. The flower picture she gave as a wedding gift hangs on my wall.
In sympathy
