It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Marian Eileen Rasmussen, who left us peacefully on Monday, July 6, 2026, at the age of 96. She was born in Kenosha, Wisconsin, on June 8, 1930, to the late Arthur and Nell (Curphy) Edquist.

On August 5, 1950, she was united in marriage to Glen Rasmussen at St. Paul Lutheran Church.  They were happily married for over 74 years.

She found great joy in playing cards, feeding the birds, golfing, and spending cherished time with her family and friends.

Marian was a graduate of Mary D. Bradford High School.  She dedicated her life to being a loving homemaker, selflessly caring for her family and creating a warm, welcoming home filled with love and laughter. In addition, she was employed by Dr. Creighton Office for many years.  Her lively spirit will be dearly missed by her children, Thomas (Sue), Rasmussen, James (Terri) Rasmussen and Pamela Maerzke; her nine grandchildren and her 14 great grandchildren who will hold fast to their sweet memories of her.

In addition to her parents and husband, Marian was preceded in death by her siblings, Arthur Edquist Jr, Kenneth Edquist, Russell Edquist, Hazel Basten, John Edquist and Robert Edquist.

As we bid farewell to our dear Marian, let us carry forward her warmth, kindness, and unyielding love in our hearts. She will remain eternally cherished in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know her.
