Marijo Ann Rader of Cadott went home to be with the Lord on May 31, 2021. She died peacefully at the group home where she’s lived for many years, lovingly tended by her caregivers. Marijo was born April 19, 1958, to Theo and Clarence Rader of Eau Claire.
She is preceded in death by her parents; sister Sandra Peterson; and brothers Larry Rader and Rodney Rader.
Marijo is survived by brothers Bill (Linda) Rader of Cedar Rapids, IA, LaMont Rader of Abilene, TX, and David (Shelly) Rader of Portage, WI; sisters Patricia Rader Pippenger of Milwaukee, WI, Carla (Kerry) Miller of Racine, WI, Jill Rader of Eau Claire, WI, and Sue Erickson of Bloomer, WI; numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews; and a team of loving, dedicated caregivers, to whom the family is deeply grateful.
Marijo lived a simple, uncomplicated life. Besides spending time with her family, her favorite activities included shopping, enjoying bacon cheeseburgers, shopping, going to zoos, shopping, visiting garage sales, and, of course, shopping. We will miss Marijo’s sweet smile and times of mischievous, impish humor, but we are at peace that she is home with the Lord.
