Elizabeth Rasmussen Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Krause Funeral Homes & Cremation Service, Inc. - Capitol Drive on Nov. 12, 2025.

Publish in a newspaper

Elizabeth S. Rasmussen (née Strosina) entered God's loving arms on November 8, 2025 at age 99, after a stroke.
Loving wife of George for 57 years. Cherished mother of James and Thomas. Beloved daughter of Max and Edna. Special sister of Jane. Also loved by grandchild Gloria, great grandchildren Alma, Ramses and Alegria, daughter-in-law Gloria and many, many friends.
Born in Milwaukee, Betty graduated from Riverside High School and attended UWM-Milwaukee. She held numerous manufacturing jobs during WW2 and married George, following his return from Naval service in the Philippines. They raised a family and Betty started a new career as office manager in a Medical Practice. She enjoyed travel, and had the opportunity to visit many countries around the world. Her love of God was enhanced through the fellowship she enjoyed as an active member of Covenant Lutheran Church. With her busy schedule, Betty always made sure everything she did came back to her true passion for her husband, children, extended family and friends.
MOM, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE LOVED, REMEMBERED AND MISSED.
Visitation will take place at Covenant Lutheran Church, 8121 West Hope Avenue, Milwaukee, Wisconsin on Thursday, December 11, 2025 from 10:00 AM – 11:00 AM. Funeral Service at the church to start at 11:00 AM.
