Acknowledgement

Was im Herzen liebevolle Erinnerungen hinterlässt und unsere Seele berührt, kann weder vergessen werden, noch verloren gehen. Wir sind tief bewegt von der grossen Anteilnahme beim Abschied von meinem über alles geliebten Ehemann, unserem Vater, Opi und Uropi Michael Kopeinig. Die vielen lieben und tröstenden Worte, Umarmungen und Tränen, wenn die Worte fehlten, Blumen und Gaben für späteren Grabschmuck lassen uns spüren, wie sehr Michael als Mensch geschätzt wurde. Ebenso danken wir Pfarreiseelsorger Thomas Markus Meier für die einfühlsamen Worte und die würdevolle Gestaltung des Trauergottesdienstes. Danke auch dem Pflegepersonal und der Palliativpflege im Kantonsspital Frauenfeld für den bewundernswerten Einsatz.
