Rae Ann Seeberg

Rae Ann Seeberg, 69, of Nokesville, Virginia, passed away peacefully at home on April 6, 2025 with her sisters and two beloved cats at her side. She was born on January, 10, 1956 at Fort Benning, Georgia to Richard S. and Jane (Metcalf) Seeberg. Being born into an Army family meant moving frequently and the first 10 years of her life took her to Bamberg and then Baumholder, Germany; DeKalb Illinois; Indianapolis, Indiana; Syracuse, New York; and then Springfield, Virginia where she spent the remainder of her school years. She was a member of Grace Presbyterian Church and participated in summer bible school as well as several youth groups. She attended Thomas A. Edison High School where she made many friends, sang in the school chorus, and graduated in the Class of 1975. Rae Ann’s first job was at the Hot Shoppe’s Cafeteria in the Springfield Mall. She was employed almost all of her adult life; getting specialized job training at the Wilson Workforce and Rehabilitation Center in Fishersville and then Didlake in Manassas. She worked many years for Marriott in several area nursing homes as a health aide, then on the facilities maintenance crew at Dominion Semiconductor, and finally retired after working in retail for Target Corporation for 18 years. Rae Ann lived in Nokesville, Virginia the last seven years of her life with her sister, Sarah, and their three cats. She loved going to the festivals and parades in Old Town Manassas or just casually strolling around the downtown area and having lunch at one of her favorite restaurants. She was an avid fan of cozy mysteries and frequently visited either the Nokesville or Bull Run branches of the public library. She loved playing puzzle and card games on her iPad as well as being an armchair coach and judge for every season of The Voice and the Masked Singer. Rae Ann’s love for mysteries extended to being a big fan of several of the series on the Hallmark Mystery channel—frequently turning into viewing marathons when all three sisters were together. She loved her family and friends and was always interested in what they were doing, as well as how they were doing. While seemingly quiet, Rae Ann never met a stranger and had a knack for getting to know all about everyone she met. She was an animal lover and in addition to loving her cats she enjoyed tracking the activities of the foxes, deer, turkeys, groundhogs and vultures that frequently passed by the house. Her ability to find joy in the simple everyday aspects of life and the stoic strength she demonstrated in facing adversity will always be inspiring. Our family will miss her dearly but her sense of humor, big heart and steady quiet presence will stay with us always. Rae Ann is predeceased by her mother and father (Richard and Jane Seeberg), infant sister Lisa Kay Seeberg, grandparents Glenn and Anna Metcalf and George and Betty Seeberg, aunts Glendoris Crosby and Cleo Graning and cousins Bob and Billie Crosby and Tom Graning. She is survived by her sisters, Sarah Seeberg and Mary (Seeberg) Crowe; her brother-in-law John Crowe; her nephew Jason Seeberg and nieces Rachel and Jessica Crowe; as well as her Aunt Elizabeth Ozark and cousins David Graning (Karen), James Crosby, Kristine Somerville (Speer Morgan), and Kathy Somerville and many second cousins in Illinois, Missouri and Hungary.
