Extract from the funeral and thanksgiving service for Rosalie (Bausi) Huber-Rübel on August 20, 1996 in the Grossmünster in Zurich.

Countless friends met in the Grossmünster to remember Bausi; it was a warm summer day in the sun. It was a joyful party with exquisite music, just like him. Accompanied by the great organ, the young wife of one of his grandsons sang "Let the bright seraphim" by Handel. With Pastor H.P. Veraguth, who was often in Taizé with Bausi, the divine service was in good hands. He says, among other things.

"In Bausi's 'Morning Dialogue with My Creator, there are wonderful prayers that show that she tried to live in the ellipse of existence with the two poles of contemplation and struggle (for a more just world)... In Rosalie Huber's life we find a deep mystical relationship with God and an everyday Christian life full of moral courage.

Active in Moral Re-Armament, she exerted her influence not only until five years ago in Caux but also where she lived, thanks to her hospitable house which her children often called "Mama's hotel". She once accommodated thirty Japanese and the family had to spend the night elsewhere! Our house was always very lively... friends from all over the world enriched our lives - we talked about all the continents and peoples; the world became small and we felt very close to the world. This is what Bausi wrote in the chronicle of his life.

Rosalie was an enthusiastic rider and mountaineer. Typical of her character, she hardly mentions her many accidents, illnesses and operations in her biography. In 1943, she fell 60 meters on skis into the rocks. Others would not have survived the fracture of the base of the skull and all the others. Make the best of it" was his motto, not just in the form of positive thinking at any cost, but rather in the spirit of Mary, whose impressive painting by Mazzoli always hung in her living rooms.

Brother Roger of Taizé defined the piety of the Taizé Brothers as follows: "A sporting spirituality". This is exactly what Bausi Huber lived with us. She was a daredevil, led by God. She took on men and women in a reckless way, inspiring them to the Kingdom of God. Her faith was ardent and imbued with love of neighbor, all animated by a lively sense of humor. Many were led by her in their lives towards God. She encouraged and comforted them, transformed them and accompanied them.

We all need a spirituality of sport, especially we Zurich Reformed, who are a bit too realistic and cold.

"These were the last words of Pastor Veraguth's sermon, from which only short excerpts are quoted here."
