Priscilla H. Rasche

My late wife Nancy Ruet worked with Priscilla at BSD2 for 17 years, and became instant friends and kindred spirits, as if they had known each other for years. Even after my wife passed away, Priscilla continued to be a very special friend to me, as we both loved bird watching, and I always admired her collection of carved wooden water birds. We shared many animated and delightful conversations since I met her over 30 years ago. I still have many of the greeting cards that Priscilla sent to Nancy or to me, with her sweet words of friendship and encouragement. I will always remember her cute smile and ebullient, effervescent laughter.

Our Deepest Sympathy to the family of Priscilla. Thank you for the many years teaching the children of the Bensenville School District 2.

I volunteered with Priscilla through the Perfect Pair organization at UW Madison, and from the Winter of 2022 into the Spring of 2023, I would see her every Sunday at the Lakes. We would play scrabble or Yahtzee, and engage in really nice conversations. She was so proud of her family, and told me the sweetest stories of her grandkids. I looked forward to seeing her every Sunday- Priscilla taught me how to play Yahtzee and I will always associate that game with her. Whenever she got a Yahtzee, her face with light up and she would throw her hands in the air and yell it, for all the other residents to hear- it was a fairly quiet room we were in too! We certainly made our presence known. We had good laughs and even better conversation. I always admired her spirit and sweet demeanor. I am so sorry for your loss, and send my deepest condolences.
