Wandere ich auch im finstern Tal, fürchte ich kein Unheil, denn Du bist bei mir, Dein Stecken und Dein Stab, sie trösten mich. Psalm 23,4 Die unzähligen Zeichen der Verbundenheit, die wir beim Abschied von Pfarrer Dr. Johannes Ulrich Jäger-Werth erfahren durften, haben uns tief berührt – sei es durch tröstende Worte, Briefe, Karten, Blumenschalen oder Spenden an wohltätige Institutionen. Ein ganz besonderer Dank gilt: - Pater Basil Höfliger für die einfühlsame und würdevolle Gestaltung der Abschiedsfeier - Erwin Füchslin, Susi Leuppi und Georges Pulfer für die wunderschöne musikalische Umrahmung - dem Team der reformierten Kirchgemeinde Einsiedeln, unter der Leitung von Rita Kümin, für den reichhaltigen Apéro - allen, die an der Feier teilgenommen und Hansuli Jäger die letzte Ehre erwiesen haben. Wir fühlen uns getragen von so viel Anteilnahme.
