Emily Maude Rouse

Emily left us on April 7, 2025. She leaves behind 4 children; Michael Henke of Berthoud, Heidi Henke of Berthoud, Jodi Rouse of Douglas, Wyoming, Jake Rouse and his wife Kapryni of Rapid City, South Dakota. She had 6 grandchildren; Jeven, Madelyn, Marvin, Jaxon, Nolan and Ace. She was preceded in death by her husband, Jody Rouse; both her parents, Hugh and Thelma. Emily came from humble beginnings. She worked hard all of her life to create a world she could thrive in, but she never forgot where she came from. Being a small business owner,  she held many fundraisers to benefit the children in our community. She also helped several of her  employees to gain citizenship, which took many years. And, she along with her late husband never wavered. Emily loved the outdoors. She loved to fish and camp and she found joy in having family around her. She loved to dance and she listened to a variety of music. Her smile was contagious and her love abounds! Just before she died, she dreamed that she caught the big one! So, friends and family, she’s gone fishing! So here’s to her, and many more catches to come!

Her celebration of life is on Saturday the 19th at Glass of Art. 316 Mountain Ave. Berthoud Co. Between 2 and 5 pm
