Rosalie Gertrude Zogg

Rosalie Gertrude Zogg was born January 26, 1926, in Salem, Nebraska, to Clarence and Ottice (Kelly) Cook. She attended a country school near Scotland, South Dakota, and later graduated from Scotland High School in 1944. She was united in marriage to Alfred Zogg on a farm east of Scotland on March 11, 1945, with her future father-in-law (the Rev. Ulrich Zogg) officiating. They began their married life in Scotland and then moved to Sheboygan, Wisconsin, where Rosalie worked at a Rexall drug store for the eight years they lived there. In 1963 the family returned to South Dakota, moving to Armour where she worked as a secretary for the Douglas County Extension Office for over 35 years. The friendships she made while working there were something she truly treasured. She and her husband Al moved to Kaylor after her retirement. Some of Rosalie’s interests included reading, fishing, knitting, crocheting (at which she was quite proficient), and getting together with friends to play cards. Her warmth and friendly manner was infectious, and she always had a smile on her face. Her kindness wasn’t reserved for just friends and family, as she was also an avid animal lover. She passed away on Friday, June 6, 2008, at Landmann-Jungman Memorial Hospital in Scotland at the age of 82 years, 4 months, and 10 days.
Rosalie is survived by her son, Andrew Zogg of Kaylor.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Alfred, and her parents.
