Mary Esther Siemens, 87, of Rochester, passed away Tuesday, May 5, 2020, at Seasons Hospice surrounded by her loving family.
Mary was a California girl who married an Iowa farm boy. She was a beloved and devoted wife and mother to her husband, children, and grandchildren. She was also a loving and dedicated friend to so many. Mary loved to cook and bake and share her goods with family, friends and neighbors. She had a beautiful soprano voice and blessed us with that special gift throughout her life at church, community choir, and special gatherings. Mary had the ability to brighten people’s day and make people feel special by the cards she sent with messages of love, encouragement and blessings. Mary dedicated her life to humbly serving the Lord and others. She taught Sunday school and lead the children and adults in worship for most of her life. The element of love and compassion Mary had was evident in the way she cared and supported those in need. She was a volunteer for the American Cancer Society and hospice services for decades. She is now at peace resting in the arms of her Savior and hearing those special words: “well-done, my good and faithful servant.”
Mary is survived by her husband, Bernard Siemens of Rochester; daughters, Jane (Mike) Geiser of Rochester, Connie (Asmer) Naim of Rochester, and sons, Thomas (Carol) Siemens of Coon Rapids, Michael (Lori) Siemens of Swannanoa, NC.; grandchildren Jacob, Rachel, Jenny, Selena, Kumail, Rafiya, Saniya, Jeremiah, Kaysha, Hannah, Abigail, Moriah; and fourteen great-grandchildren with more on the way.
Due to the ongoing health crisis, there will be no services held. Memorials can be made to Seasons Hospice of Rochester or Channel One Food Bank of Rochester.
