Obituary

Jane Elizabeth Rasmussen, Age 76, of Taunton, MA departed this earthly world on August 24th at N.E. Sinai Hospital following a lengthy illness. Born in Taunton, MA, she was the daughter of late Peter Joseph & Anne Gert (Flood) O’Connor. Jane attended Taunton schools, graduating from Taunton High. In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her stepfather David A. Rogers of Taunton. She is survived by her loving and devoted husband of 54 years, Neil Charles Rasmussen of Taunton and formerly of North Dighton. Also her beloved sons, Eric C. Rasmussen and his wife Kristen of Taunton and Brian P. Rasmussen of West Wareham and the jewels in her crown, twin grandchildren Cam and Delaney. Jane also leaves her sister Susan Flood of Taunton and brother Peter J. Flood of Weymouth; her sister in law Cynthia Tollefson of Middletown, RI. Jane was full of life, enjoying nothing more than taking jaunts with her soul mate Neil to Vermont or Cape Cod, reading books, spending working time as office manager at Goudreau & Gross for 31 years, no longer a job but part of her extended family. The fabric of her life was a collage of happy times with her many relatives; a niece, nephews, several generations of cousins as well as her hockey family. She truly enjoyed and lived life to the fullest, the best with Neil, her sons, her daughter of her heart Krissy and her grand kids for their charm, scholarship, civic pride and athleticism. Our dragonfly is now truly soaring with the angels. A graveside service will be held on Tuesday, September 8th at 10am. at St. Joseph’s Cemetery in Taunton where social distancing will be observed. Arrangements are under the care of the O’Keefe-Wade Funeral Home. Donations may be made in Jane’s memory, in lieu of flowers to the, Taunton High School Face Off Club, P.O.
