Rosemarie B. Lamson, of Charlottesville, Virginia, age 87, died on Monday, October 27, 2014, at the Sentara Martha Jefferson Hospital. She died from acute respiratory failure leading to her admission the day before her death. Like her husband before her, she died in the hands of their son.

She was born on August 8, 1927, in Miesbach, Bavaria, Germany, the only child of Andreas Lidschreiber and Theresa Lidschreiber. She was confirmed in the Evangelischen Kirche (Evangelical Church) of Miesbach in 1943. She attended the Realschule (literally “Real School,” higher than a Hauptschule but not as high as a Gymnasium [University]) in Munchen (Munich), while staying with a Jewish family.

She served in the Hitler Youth, as the law required of all German Aryans beginning in 1936. After the war, she married an aspiring medical doctor from Hungary, Bela Telek, in Munich, and the couple immigrated to America, settling in Rochester, New York. The marriage was brief, and, after the divorce, she married George Hunter Lamson, of Washington, D.C. The couple lived in and about Washington, D.C., and had one child, Norman Hunter Lamson. She moved to St. Petersburg, Florida, in 1982. In November, 2001, she moved into an assisted living facility in St. Petersburg because she was no longer able to live independently. She accepted her son’s invitation to move into his residence with him in Charlottesville, Virginia, in May, 2002, which became her home until her death.

Her passions were traveling and the arts. She visited Morocco, Egypt, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Greece, Italy, Sicily, Portugal, Switzerland, Austria, England, Norway, Canada and Mexico. She also enjoyed attending symphony concerts.

She was predeceased by her parents, her husband; and a special cousin, Walter Lidschreiber of Munich. She is survived by her son; Walter’s wife, Eva Lidschreiber, and their children, and other cousins and relations in Germany.

She was a kind, gentle and giving person. She had the special wisdom that only mothers are capable of. Thanks is expressed to her primary care doctor, William Dandridge Jr., and to her private sitter-aid-attendants.

At the deceased’s request the remains are to be cremated and the ashes buried in the Lamson family plot at Rock Creek Park Cemetery, Washington, D.C. Anyone wishing to celebrate her life may visit on Saturday, November 1, 2014, from 11 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. at the residence, 1621 Greenleaf Lane, Charlottesville, Virginia.
