Rosemary was born February 12, 1925, in Wisconsin Rapids to Clarence and Bertha (Lipke) Henke. She married Peter Oesterreicher in 1946 in Wisconsin Rapids. They were blessed with 61 years of marriage until his passing in 2007.
Rosemary, a member of the "Handy Handmaiden's," found joy in life's simple pleasures. She loved being on the farm, assisting with daily chores, and tending to her beautiful garden. She found fulfillment in canning and sharing with other people. Rosemary's generous spirit was evident in every aspect of her life and profoundly impacted all who knew her. Rosemary was known for her generosity and dedication to her family as a homemaker. Her home was a haven of warmth and love that echoed her nurturing nature.
Rosemary is survived by her siblings, Charlotte Carlson, Wallace "Joe" Henke, and Althea (Don) Gundersen, and many nieces and nephews.
Rosemary is preceded in death by her husband, Peter; parents, Clarence and Bertha Henke; siblings: Jeanette (Dale) Gerzmehle, Helen (Ken) Worlund, Harland (Elaine) Henke, and Clarence (Veronica) Henke; brother-in-law Donald Carlson; and sister-in-law Nancy Henke.
The family would like to thank the Nekoosa Court Assisted Living staff, Aspirus Health Hospice Care, and the Doctor's Clinic, especially Dr. Jacob Malooly, for the care and compassion shown.
