CHAMPAIGN – Gilbert O. Raasch, 95, of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, died Jan. 20, 1999, at Calgary.
Information on funeral arrangements was unavailable.
He was hired by the Illinois State Geological Survey in 1946 to re-establish the education program, especially the public field trip program, that had been suspended during World War II. In his six years with the survey, he conducted nearly 50 public field trips. He also assembled a significant portion of the survey's Cambrian-Devonian fossil collection.
He moved to Calgary in 1953 to work as a paleontologist in petroleum exploration for several oil companies. In 1967, he founded Raasch and Associates, a private paleontological consulting firm, which he operated until he was in his 80s.
A symposium, "Gilbert O. Raasch, A Man for All Systems," was held in his honor at the 1997 Geological Society of America North Central meeting in Madison, Wis.
