Marie Theresa (Eizenhoefer) Rago

Rago, Marie Theresa (Eizenhoefer) Age 86 of North Oaks, formerly of Minneapolis and Brooklyn, NY. Preceded in death by her son, Michael Eizenhoefer; beloved parents and brother. Survived by daughters, Ann Marie (Gary) Johnson and Sue (Scott) Menter; grandchildren, Stefanie (Ray) Holman and Timothy Johnson; great-grandchildren, Frances, Gloria and Henry Holman; sister-in-law, Marion Rago; nieces; and many friends. After raising her family in Minnesota, in the early 1970's, Marie returned to her beloved Brooklyn and completed her long-standing goal. She attained her Bachelor's Degree in Education at 54, and a Masters at 59. Other than her children, those diplomas were her proudest achievement. She taught in the NYC Public School system, enjoying Pre-K most of all. After retirement, Marie returned to Minnesota to be with her daughters and their families. She loved nothing more than having all of her loved ones surround her--"four generations", which we did until the end of her very long and productive life. We will always carry her memory in our hearts. Marie's family is grateful for the many years of loving and outstanding care given to her by the staff of Clare Bridge Brookdale.
