Obituary

Nancy Lou (Bohr) Rothkegel went to be with the Lord and join her beloved husband Ed on May 9, 2024, while surrounded by her loving family at CHI Memorial Hospital. Born on February 10, 1938, to John Joseph Bohr and Margaret Ada (Byer) Bohr, she was 86 years old. She graduated from Westlake High School in Westlake, Ohio, and soon after married Ed Rothkegel in 1956. Ed predeceased her on January 22, 2018, after 61 years of marriage. She was also predeceased by her two brothers, Richard and Don Bohr. Nancy was a licensed practical nurse and later became a registered nurse. In addition to raising four children, she and Ed fostered more than 30 babies and hosted several foreign exchange students who remain close to the family today. For 32 years, she and Ed spent summers in Port Clinton, OH, and winters in Ormond Beach, Florida. They moved to Ooltewah, Tennessee, in 2017 to be closer to family. Nancy loved cruising, playing cards, mahjong, genealogy, golfing, bowling, fishing, and bingo. She also was a regular church volunteer. Nancy is survived by her four children: Kim Kalal (Norm), Jon Rothkegel (Kathy), Karin Stout (Dan), and Kelly Lauterbach (Joel). She also had 10 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren with #21 on the way, many nieces, nephews and wonderful friends.
