LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Mary Agnes Rothfuss-Kingsley entered into rest in Sonora at the age of 92.

Born in Omaha, Neb., she lived in Santa Cruz County in the early 1950s before moving to Lake County in 1978.

For Mary, her religion was No. 1 with her family centered around her as the main focus in her life.

She was a very active member of the Queen of Peace Catholic Church. She worked at the Noble Realty and Shore Line Realty for more than 30 years.

Mary was known to her many friends as a formidable woman. With family as the center of her life, she needed to see or talk with at least one of her children each and every day.

Mary is survived by her son, Larry Rothfuss and wife, Ausilia “Zizi”; daughters, Janice Maschek and husband, Al; and twins, Marilyn Brown and husband, Pat and Carolyn King; and a step-sister, Joyce Pegg; along with many nieces, nephews and friends.

She will also be missed by 10 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.

Mary was preceded in death by her husband of 58 years, Merton “Chips” Rothfuss, then later by her second husband, Francis Kingsley.

Friends and family are invited to Queen of Peace Catholic Church where a Mass of Christian burial will be celebrated on Thursday, Feb. 9, beginning at 11 a.m.

Friends and family are invited to a celebration of life which will be held at the family home following the Mass of Christian Burial.

Arrangements under the care of Jones & Lewis Clear Lake Memorial Chapel.

Please share your loving and caring memories of Mary by signing her online guestbook at www.jonesandlewis.com and www.legacy.com .
