Evangeline Rusch
Evangeline Faith Rusch, lovingly know as “Star” will be remembered as a four year old with an enormous love for her family, the great outdoors, coloring, reading, dancing and most of all for her unconditional love with hugs and cuddles. One of her favorite shows on television was the Animal Plant where she learned about all the different animals around her. She looked forward to her fishing adventures and was excited about this year’s deer hunting season and hoping “papa” would get that “big deer.” With mom and grandma she loved helping with the gardens and didn’t mind getting covered with dirt.  

Evangeline’s smile and adoring personality touched so many lives in her short 4 years. There will forever be a huge hole in the hearts of those who loved her dearly, especially her mama Julieann Bullock of Fairchild; grandma and papa, Sarah Buschman and Brian Firkus of Fairchild, Angela (Brad) McKay and Jereme Rusch all of Milwaukee; great grandparents, Teri Wheat and Bonnie and Victor Firkus all of Fairchild, Theresa Artinger of California; great great grandmother, Louella Schaenzer of Osseo; aunts and uncle, Zaphire Buschman, Silas Buschman, aunt but also best buddy Bristolyn Firkus all of Fairchild and Abby Schneider of Augusta.  

Evangeline was born November 24, 2019, in Eau Claire to Julieann Bullock and the late Michael Rusch. She had lived in Altoona before moving with her mother to Fairchild to be near her family.

Evangeline and her father passed away on Friday morning, December 1, 2023, from injuries sustained during a automobile accident in Ludington Township, rural Fall Creek, WI.  

A time for family and friends to remember the precious soul of Evangeline will be held Sunday, December 17, 2023, from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Fairchild Fire Station at 200 Town Line Road, Fairchild, WI. 

  The family is assisted by Anderson Funeral Home in Augusta.
