Jutta Rauschkolb, maiden name Reinfelder, died on Monday, January 17, 2011 at age 60, of aggressive lung cancer. Jutta was a non smoker.
Jutta was born in Erlangen, Germany on October 9, 1950, the second daughter of Karl and Annaliese Reinfelder ( both deceased).
She is survived by her husband, Lloyd of Gulfport; her son, Ryan of Orlando, FL; her niece Tina Allen of Stratford- upon- Avon, England; and nephew, Marco Kretschmer of Erlangen, Germany; and a sister-in-law, Charla Rauschkolb Bergmann of Gulfport. Jutta's older sister, Elke is also deceased.
Jutta's interests included swimming, snow and water skiing, traveling and camping, hand crafting, and most of all motorcycling on her two BMW motorcylces. She was also a 3rd degree Black Belt in Taekwondo. Most grown men would run to the men's room and hide when it came time to pair off for sparring sessions rather than to spar with Jutta.
After getting her college degree in Erlangen, she interned as a dental hygenist/assistant in Nurenburg, Germany. Jutta also worked as a dental assistant in Germany for the U. S. Army, in New Orleans for Dr. Champagne, and for the last 22 years as lead dental assistant for Dr. John Hopkins, D.D.S, Gulfport. Jutta was passionate about her work and her engaging personality charmed even the most difficult patients. She also loved her coworkers and considered them all as her second family.
Jutta married Lloyd Rauschkolb on May 25, 1972 in Augsburg, Germany. Together they shared a love for riding motorcycles responsibily.
A private memorial service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, January 22, 2011.
