She bravely handled everything that Alzheimer’s had to throw at her. Through every stage, she showed grace and love and quite often humour. Her last smiles were brilliant - as she listened to the music and chatter of those nearest and dearest to her. She gave love unconditionally and without measure - and it came back to her without reservation. She was very special. The kind of special that only comes once in a lifetime - and we all knew it.
She was pre-deceased by her loving husband Otto, her son Harald (Sigrid), and her daughter Margot, parents Franz and Ottillia, siblings Romauld (Christel), Helene (Bert), Hilde, Dieter (Monika).
Survived by her sister Olga, her daughter Ellen, her grandchildren Adam, Erika, Lucas, Greg, and Sarah. She gave us everything and asked for nothing in return.
Mutti, Oma, Tante, Schwester - we will miss you so much.
