Sr., 82 a resident of the Allwood section of Clifton for more than 50 years, died on Monday, January 14, 2008 at Carolton Convalescent Hospital in Fairfield, CT. Born on November 15, 1925, in Queens, NY, he spent his childhood in Bloomfield, NJ, and graduated from Seton Hall Prep in South Orange. He then attended, and graduated at age 19, from the University of Notre Dame, where he was student manager of the football team and a medal-winning intramural boxer. A member of "The Greatest Generation," he served in the US Army Air Corps, and was stationed in France and Germany at the end of World War II. Upon his return to the US, he began a lifelong career as a printing salesman - first at Eastern Colortype in Clifton, and then at Einson-Freeman in Fair Lawn. In the early 1970s he founded Rauscher Associates, a printing brokerage firm, which he and his wife ran successfully until their retirement. Mr. Rauscher was a parishioner at St. Andrew RC Church in Clifton where for 50 years he was a virtual fixture, serving as an usher at the noon mass every Sunday. Some of his favorite things were Notre Dame football; Caribbean cruises; eating foods that weren't good for him; playing pinochle and poker; and, above all, spending time with his beloved wife, the late Dorothy B. (Zinger) Rauscher, to whom he was married for nearly 50 years. She died in 2000. He is survived by two sons, Ernest W. Rauscher, Jr. and wife, Maureen, of Worcester, MA, and Robert L. Rauscher and wife, Angela of Fairfield, CT, by a daughter, Pam Rauscher, and husband. Eric Davis of Montclair, and a grandson, Jonathan Davis, of NYC. They remember him, and strive to honor him for the sacrifices he made, the lessons he taught and the values he tried to instill in them. Funeral services will begin 6-6:30 AM Friday at Allwood Funeral Home, 660-670 Allwood Road, Clifton, with a 10 AM Mass at St. Andrew R.C. Church. Entombment will follow at Garden of Memories Mausoleum, Washington Twsp. Visiting hours are Thursday 2-4 and 7-9 PM.
