Wenn ihr mich sucht, sucht mich in euren Herzen. Habe ich dort eine Bleibe gefunden, lebe ich in euch weiter. Wir danken von Herzen für die grosse Anteilnahme und die vielen Zeichen der Verbundenheit, die wir beim Abschied von meinem lieben Ehemann und unserem Vater entgegennehmen durften. Jeder Händedruck, jede Umarmung und jede Karte haben Trost und Kraft gegeben. Von einem geliebten Menschen Abschied zu nehmen, ist unsagbar schwer, aber es ist schön zu wissen, wie viele gute Erinnerungen Wisi bei uns allen hinterlassen hat. Ein besonderer Dank geht an: - Dr. med. Christoph Thalmann in Bilten für die langjährige ärztliche Betreuung - Dr. med. Roman Hauser in Näfels - das Personal des Alters- und Pflegeheims Letz für den respektvollen Umgang - Pfarrer Josef Karber für die Umsetzung der würdigen Beerdigung und den Gottesdienst Von Herzen danken wir allen, die mit ihren zahlreichen Spenden das Kloster Ingenbohl unterstützt haben.
Wir danken allen, die unserem lieben Verstorbenen im Leben Freundschaft und Achtung schenkten, sich mit uns in stiller Trauer verbunden fühlten und ihre Anteilnahme in so vielfältiger Weise zum Ausdruck brachten. Mollis, im Mai 2026
