Life EventDateDescription
MarriageClifford Joseph Reuschlein married Beth (?)
Birth5 February 1919Clifford Joseph Reuschlein was born on 5 February 1919.
He was the son of Henry Joseph Reuschlein and Christina Paulus.
Death11 May 2008Clifford Joseph Reuschlein died on 11 May 2008 at age 89 Clifford Joseph Reuschlein, a local engineer and businessman who played a part in the Manhattan Project and lobbied tirelessly in his later years for people with mental illness, died Sunday, May 11, 2008, at his home in Madison. He was 89.

Mr. Reuschlein graduated in 1942 from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a degree in mechanical engineering. He was an engineer for DuPont during World War II when he was assigned to the Manhattan Project at the Hanford Engineer Works in Richland, Wash., the site of one of three federal locales developing a secret defense project. Aware only that his work was a part of the war effort, Mr. Reuschlein contributed to the development of the atomic bomb. He was a Navy veteran, serving aboard the U.S.S. Kenmore in the South Pacific in World War II.

In 1946 he resumed his engineering career, joining Hyland Hall and Co. (H and H Industries/H and H Electric) in Madison, where he became president and retired as chairman of the board 37 years later. He was appointed by President Dwight Eisenhower to the Apprentice Advisory Committee to the Secretary of Labor, where he served in his capacity as an engineer and businessman.

He was a member of Pi Tau Sigma International Mechanical Engineering Honor Society; the National Society of Professional Engineers; the American Society of Mechanical Engineers; the Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning Engineers Society; the Construction Specifications Institute; and the Society of American Military Engineers. He was a fellow, board member and president of the Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors' National Association. He was a founder and board member of Maplewood Nursing Home in Sauk City, Wis.

He was an avid boater, water skier and downhill skier and enjoyed carpentry as a hobby. Mr. Reuschlein devoted his retirement in El Paso, Texas, to advocating for the mentally ill and their families. An activist for better treatment, government accountability, and caregiver support, he spent his days counseling families in crisis, working with local and state mental health professionals, influencing legislators and judges, and producing a newsletter to draw attention to mental health issues. He helped establish a local chapter of the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill (NAMI), serving as its director for 12 years. He was a member of the NAMI Homeless and Missing Network steering committee and a board member and past vice-president of Texas AMI. He was named 1991 Citizen of the Year by the El Paso Chapter of the National Association of Social Workers and 1992 Outstanding Volunteer of the Year by El Paso United Way. The El Paso Mayor's Advisory Board on Aging inducted him into the Older El Pasoans Hall of Fame, and he was honored by the El Paso Life Management Center for outstanding service to individuals with mental disabilities.

During his Madison years he was a member of Blessed Sacrament Church, Knights of Columbus, Elks Club, Kiwanis, and the National Alliance for the Mentally Ill. In El Paso he was a member of NAMI and EpAMI.

Mr. Reuschlein was born Feb. 5, 1919, in Plain, Wis., the son of Henry and Christina Paulus Reuschlein. A serendipitous childhood encounter with Frank Lloyd Wright proved prophetic when Wright admired the button collection he'd sewn to his cap. Wright told him, "One day, you'll make something of yourself," and Mr. Reuschlein grew up to design the mechanicals for at least two of Wright's buildings: the Unitarian church in Madison and the Spring Green Center in Spring Green, Wis.

Marriage3 August 1946Rosemary Margaret Markham married Earl Vincent Reuschlein, son of Henry Joseph Reuschlein and Christina Paulus, on 3 August 1946.
Death30 October 2007Rosemary Margaret Markham died on 30 October 2007 at age 85 Rosemary M. Reuschlein, beloved wife, mother, grandmother and sister, went quickly and unexpectedly to be with her Lord, Tuesday, Oct. 30, 2007. She was 85 at death. Born March 26, 1922. She was proud of her British and Irish genealogy. She was raised in Horicon, where her dad, Attorney William Markham, was mayor for 12 years. She graduated from Horicon High School (1940) and the UW-Madison (1944), with a degree in speech. She taught English in Pardeeville before marriage. Rosemary Markham met Earl Reuschlein at a UW dance and married him on Aug. 3, 1946. "Ro" as her husband of 55 years affectionately called her, became a fulltime mom and lovingly parented four sons and a daughter, all still living in the area. She was known for her ear-to-ear grin and infectious laugh, her creativity and devotion to her faith. Rosemary was generous to a fault and loved to ply every guest with food and snacks. She was such a proud mom that many of her friends knew more about the accomplishments of her children than they knew about Rosemary herself. She was a gifted soprano, who could break into song to her Lord or serenade her family on any occasion. She even broke into song in the emergency room, at St. Mary's Hospital. Rosemary loved participating in the Blessed Sacrament choir, the Ecumenical choir and the Blessed Sacrament funeral choir, for years and recorded her own music for when her day would come. Rosemary's immediate survivors include her sister, Patricia Reese of Plano, Texas; her four sons, Steven (Diana), Robert, Richard (Janeen) and John (Stephanie); and a daughter, Suzanne (Dietrich) Gruen. She is also survived by her seven grandkids, Matthew Niva, Kristin (Zach) Scheeler, Jessica Reuschlein, Alison Reuschlein, Eric Gruen, Mark Gruen and Hannah Reuschlein, plus many nieces and nephews. Rosemary was preceded in death by her parents, William and Mae Markham; a brother, Spencer Markham; and her husband, Earl.
