Claudette Rauch Obituary

Claudette Marie Rauch, passed away on April 1, 2025, at her residence in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Born on July 24, 1964, in Milwaukee, she touched the lives of many during her time with us.

Claudette dedicated herself to a noble career as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) at Caring Alternatives, where she provided care and support to those in need. Her compassion and dedication shone through in every aspect of her work, earning her the respect and admiration of patients and colleagues alike.

Claudette's vibrant personality was characterized by her love of life and joyfulness. She was known for her fun-loving spirit and her passion for disco dancing, always bringing a smile to those who had the pleasure of being in her company. Her affinity for children was particularly notable; she cherished every moment spent with them and delighted in their laughter and joy.

Beyond her professional and family life, Claudette was also family of the Motopsychoz Motorcycle Club. Her diverse interests and friendships added richness to her life, contributing to the warmth and happiness she radiated.

Claudette leaves behind a loving family who will deeply miss her. She is survived by her devoted parents, Gary and Joyce Rauch. As a cherished mother, she is survived by her sons, Scott (Lisa) Rauch, Lawrence Rauch, and Brandon (Lisa) Rauch. Claudette was a proud grandmother to Briana Rauch, Melinda Rauch, Chloe Rauch, Scott Rauch Jr., Aiden Rauch, Serenity Rauch, Nevaeh Rauch, Brandon Jr. Rauch, Nova Rauch, and Nalani Rauch. Her siblings, including Margaret (Howard) Harper, Tia (Elias) Lopez, Micheale Ortiz, and Gary Jr. (Nicole) Rauch, will hold her memory close, as will the many nieces and nephews she adored: Elijah, Isaiah, Dominic, Devin, Gary Lee III, Nikaela, Shane, Noel, Amber, Johnny, Shania, Scott Ray, Tina, Shantel, Maritza, Mercedes, Elias Jr., Jose, James Jr., Sami, and Stephanie.

Claudette is preceded in death by her beloved grandparents, Gerald and Rosemary Rauch, Viola and Albert Swider, and Clarence Harris. Their legacy lives on in the hearts of those who carry forth her memory and spirit.

"She was one of the toughest, hard nosed, most hardheaded women we ever known, old school to the core, but she had a heart full of Gold. She always put her own life aside to take care of others, never thinking twice about it. That's just who she was. You will be so missed! Love ya! See you in the sky!"

Services will be held at The Crowbar. Please check back for further details.
