SALLY MAUSER Obituary
On February 10th, 2018 Sally Rust Mauser passed away peacefully in her La Conner home surrounded by her family, after a fifteen-year battle with Alzheimer's disease.
During her battle she remained at home under the tender care of her husband. They were supported by family and friends and often travelled the Pacific Northwest camping and enjoying time to together.
Sally was born in Coeur d' Alene, Idaho to Henry and Juanita Rust.
Sally graduated from Coeur d' Alene high school and from Deaconess School of Nursing in 1956, followed by her marriage to Bruce Mauser. They had two children, Jill and Betsy.
They lived in Spokane Washington where she worked as a nurse and participated in the Junior League, was a member of the Hangman Valley Women's Golf Club and the Episcopal Church. Later in life Sally moved to Seattle and retired from the University of Washington hospital. Upon retirement she found her "dream home" in La Conner Washington.
"Who didn't love Sally?!" Sally was an incredible wife, mother, friend, nurse and counselor to many. Her artistic abilities remain intriguing to all. From pottery and painting to glass work and most recently quilting, Sally inspired and had many in awe of all of her art work.
Sally is survived by her husband Bruce, her daughters Jill Bell (Bruce), Betsy Neve (Robert), her grandchildren: Daniele, Samuel, Samantha, and her sister Henrietta Wolfe.
Sally will be missed by all!
We want to thank the Skagit Adult Day Program, more specifically, "The Bradford House" and The Northwest Regional Council. Also, a special thanks to Hospice of the Northwest.
