What a beautiful tribute to your dear Mom. Our fond memories of Brigitte began 20 years ago at Camp Neustadt when she befriended us and we soon had a lake group, enjoying sunny days together under the trees by the lake. Often Brigitte treated us with her delicious baking and then began the kaffee & kuchen at each other’s campsites. During the non-lake months we lunched and celebrated our birthdays and began our weekly Kildonan Park gatherings which included more old friends, as well as met for breakfasts and dinners at the German Club. We are very saddened by the unexpected passing of Brigitte and we will remember her always and miss her very much. - Posted by: Dieter & Lorraine Wagner (Friends) on: May 03, 2026
