Alice Gossette
Alice R. Gossette, age 63, of New Bremen, died on Saturday, January 25, 2020 at 9:50 P.M. at her residence.
She was born on July 27, 1956 in St. Marys, the daughter of the late Conrad C. and Esther V. (Poeppelman) Hoelscher. On September 18, 1981, she married David L. Gossette, and he survives in New Bremen.   
Also surviving are her children Ken Gossette of Springfield, Ohio, and Brianne (Adam) Berger of Maumee, Ohio, her grandchildren Ryker and Nora Berger, her brothers: Dave (Sandy) Hoelscher of Ft. Loramie, Steve (Carolyn) Hoelscher of Ft. Loramie, and Conrad (Cindy) Hoelscher of Versailles, her in-laws: Ann (Bernd) Graf of San Jose, CA, Susan (Tom) Rengers of New Bremen, and Mike (Sandy) Gossette of Reno, NV.
Along with her parents, Alice was preceded in death by a son, Zachery Gossette, a brother Kenneth Hoelscher, and brother in-laws Fred and Tommy Gossette.
Alice was a graduate of Ft. Loramie High School, and was a member of the Church of the Holy Redeemer in New Bremen. For many years she worked at the Joint Twp. Dist. Memorial Hospital in St. Marys, and later was a caregiver in the home health field.

She was an avid reader of Knitting Designs and even taught classes for others to learn the craft, and she operated the former Thankful Ewe store in New Bremen. Alice will be remembered as a very caring lady who loved her family to the fullest.
