CLASSMATE > Roger Severson 10.05.2020

 

     Roger A. Severson, 71, of Eau Claire, WI,                        passed away on October 5th, 2020 at Sacred Heart Hospital in Eau Claire, WI. Roger will be buried at Fort Snelling National Cemetery and a Celebration of Life will be scheduled in the Spring of 2021 with family and friends.

Roger was born in St Cloud, MN to Merle and Isabelle (Lind) Severson on January 4th, 1949. In 1967 he graduated from Alexandria Area High School in Alexandria, MN. After high school Roger joined the United States Navy in 1968 and served through 1972, working as a T-28 and F-4 airplane mechanic on the USS John F. Kennedy aircraft carrier. Roger had a lot of great memories during his time in the Navy and had lots of stores to share. After his time in the service he attended Alexandria Technical College and graduated in 1974 with a degree in sales and marketing. Roger started working at the Veterans Administration Medical Center in Minneapolis and worked within the VA system in Shreveport, LA, Des Moines, IA, and Tomah, WI, where he retired in 1996 as Chief of Building Management. After retiring from the VA, he worked for Mid State Consultants as a Right of Way agent from 1999 until 2017.

Roger’s true passion was sports, more specifically, Minnesota sports. He would be the first to tell you that living in Wisconsin for 35 years as a die-hard Minnesota fan can be very challenging. He had a 6-foot satellite dish installed in the back yard to make sure he never missed a sporting event, whether it was the Twins, Vikings or anything at the collegiate level. If there was a Minnesota sport to watch, he was there. Roger was a great storyteller and loved to share his many experiences over the years, whether it was when he worked on the aircraft carrier and seeing the world, his time as a stock car driver, television crew cameraman, shoe salesman, and even a vending machine toy supplier. He loved remodeling projects, and even found time to make decorative stained-glass windows. Over the years Roger actively volunteered in his church, proudly served the Lions Club, and happily volunteered to paint the static display aircraft outside the Tomah VA hospital. He had many different talents and was always available to help when needed.

Roger will be most remembered for his sense of humor and his ability to make everyone around him feel special. He was an incredibly caring person and was always willing to lend a hand to someone in need. The last few years of his life was spent at Grace Willowbrook assisted living facility in Eau Claire, WI. Our family is grateful for how welcoming everyone was and the great care he received while there.

Roger is preceded in death by his father Merle, mother Isabelle, and brothers Wayne, Richard, Bruce, Dale, and Ron.

Survivors include his son Ryan (Mollie) Severson of De Pere, WI, daughter Jennifer Severson of Wausau, WI, brothers Gary (Shirley) Severson of Alexandria, MN, Dennis (Jackie) Severson of Gig Harbor, WA, Greg (Jean) Severson of Hibbing, MN, Keith (Diane) Severson of Bloomington, MN, and Janice (Eric) Roller. Roger was an incredibly proud “Bumpa” to his four grandchildren, Abigail, Tyler, Noah, and Kayla.

Paulette Schulz Podratz & Jerry Podratz > daughter 09.24.2020

“All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single flame.”  - St. Francis of Assisi


Chelsi Lynn (Podratz) Terwey, age 42 of Otsego MN, passed from her families loving arms into the Lord’s on September 24th, 2020.  The cause was non-small cell lung cancer.  She was born on November 8th, 1977 to Jerry & Paulette (Schulz) Podratz in Shakopee, MN.  Chelsi graduated from Delano High School in 1996. As a very active athlete, she participated & excelled in cross country, basketball, track & field, & played flute in the school band.  Chelsi attended college at the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire where she graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with an emphasis in Accounting in 2000.  Chelsi was also a collegiate athlete in Cross Country & Track for 3 years.

After college in October of 2000 Chelsi started working for Motivaction, (now Augeo), & has remained there currently as a senior accountant for what would have been her 20-year anniversary this October.  Chelsi loved what she did for her career & cared about so many people she worked with at Motivaction.  Always dedicated, she worked until she physically couldn’t in August of 2019.

“If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.”  - Napoleon Hill

This quote sums up best who Chelsi was, she did small things in a great way.  Her family & friends were what mattered the most to her in this world, that was her one true passion.  One look at any scrapbook she made & you could immediately tell that.  Chelsi had a quiet, gentle way about her while remaining the pillar of strength of the family.  She took comfort in the little everyday things that made the family tick, helping Cooper with homework, braiding Lexi’s hair, playing family games, & switching decorations in the house to reflect the season were the little moments of joy that she lived for.  She was simple & uncomplicated that way, always giving to those around her & thinking of herself last, if ever.  This along with her radiant smile that even lung cancer could not suppress, is what drew so many people to love & care for her. She loved spending time in her scrapbooking room creating works of art for memories of past events.  Chelsi also loved when spring came along & she could start planting flowers for the front of the house & the deck in the back.  She also loved to read & it was very seldom that there wasn’t a book within an arms reach.  My how God probably laughed when Chelsi got to heaven & responded to his greeting of how she’s doing with “I’m doing fine, how are you?”

Chelsi’s memory will be carried forward here on earth through her loving husband Erik, daughter Alexis, son Cooper, along with parents Jerry & Paulette (Schulz) Podratz, siblings Derick Podratz, & Kelie (Podratz) Davis, her in-laws, 10 nephews & nieces; Tyler, Mitchell, Amber, Cassie, Jacob, Audrey, Caleb, Caitlyn, Sylvia, & Samuel, & many other extended family & friends.

Chelsi wanted her body to be donated to the Mayo clinic for medical research.  When her remains are returned to the family, we will have a large in-person memorial on a later determined date to celebrate her life.  In lieu of flowers, considerations for the family may be sent to the lung cancer foundation of your choice in Chelsi’s name, or to the Chelsi Terwey GoFundMe campaign which will be used to plant trees in the Terwey’s yard in remembrance of Chelsi.

There will be a small memorial service for immediate family only due to the Pandemic at Word of Peace Church in Rogers on Sunday, October 4th at 1:00pm.  The link to live stream the service is below, we hope you all join us online in remembering Chelsi.
