KINDERMAN, MARGARET LEA RAUSCH, 88, passed away Easter Sunday, April 8, 2012 in Tyler, TX.
A native of Louisville, KY and graduate of the all-girls Atherton High School, she spent a number of her early years working at Mengels and Carter Dry Goods. She also was involved with local politics. Margaret was a selfless, hard-working and caring mother, aunt, sister, daughter, wife, niece, friend, and neighbor.
She found her greatest pleasure in helping those she loved. Quick with a smile and ever-so spunky, fun-loving, and pointed, she will be missed and remembered well by all who knew and loved her.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Robert Kinderman; her parents, Charles and Alice Rausch; and brothers, John, Edwin, Robert and Charles Kenneth Rausch.
She is survived by her children, Kenneth (Becky), John (Lisa) of Louisville, Karla Ceccoli (Hector) of Tyler, TX; grandsons, Jack, Matthew, Gabriel, Michael Kinderman and Robert, John, and Paul Ceccoli, along with many other relatives. Visitation will be on Thursday, April 12, 2012 from 2 - 8 p.m. at Highlands Funeral Home. Service is 10 a.m. on Friday at Highlands with burial at Calvary Cemetery.
