Jenny Stampfli Obituary

Stampfli, Jenny

Jenny Stampfli, born on March 10, 1935, in Celebes, Indonesia, passed away peacefully at her home on November 27, 2024. She lived a remarkable life characterized by warmth, strength, love and kindness, and an unwavering commitment, especially to her family. Jenny was a beloved mother to her three children, Romy Hall (Steve), Debby Gross (Otis), and Ralph Stampfli (Lesley). Her legacy lives on through her seven cherished grandchildren: Brandon, Anthony, Jennifer, Emelie, Kayli, Duncan, and Jordan, along with twelve great-grandchildren who will carry forward the love and lessons she instilled in them. She is also survived by her siblings, Lucy Van Hemert, Rudy Bruggeman (Irene), Edward Bruggeman, and sister-in-law Karen Bruggeman, alongside a host of nieces, nephews, and countless friends whose lives she touched. Throughout her life, Jenny remained an active and vibrant member of her community. She was a member of Our Lady of the Rosary Church and found a joyful camaraderie at the Huber Heights Senior Center and the YMCA. Jenny loved to stay active, especially expressing her spirit through line dancing, where her infectious energy and cheerful demeanor made every gathering a celebration. Known for her social nature, Jenny had a special gift for making everyone feel welcome and appreciated. Her home was a haven of love and laughter, where friends and family would gather, drawn to her warmth. She possessed an extraordinary ability to uplift those around her, creating lasting memories and relationships that spanned decades. Jenny's life was a beautiful tapestry woven with the threads of love, family, and friendship. Though she has joined her late husband, Hendrik Stampfli, her parents, Albert and Emelie Bruggeman, and her siblings, George Bruggeman, Elizabeth Tilmanns, Albert "Joe" Bruggeman and Bobbie Bruggeman, as well as her sister-in-law Jans Bruggeman, she remains alive in the hearts of those she touched. Her legacy will continue to inspire and bring joy to future generations, reminding us all of the importance of connection, community, and love. As we remember Jenny, we celebrate her life-a life full of joy, laughter, and endless love. She will be deeply missed but fondly remembered by all who were lucky enough to know her. The family would like to extend a special thank you to Freida Spears, Joni Bruggeman, Lisa Thompson, Pam Combs for the love and care they provided to Jenny, along with the many family members who were with us during her journey. Visitation will be held from 5:00-8:00 pm on Friday, December 6, 2024 at Newcomer Funeral Home, North Chapel, 4104 Needmore Road, Dayton, Ohio. Mass of Christian Burial will take place at 10:30 am on Saturday, December 7, 2024 at Our Lady of the Rosary, 22 Notre Dame Avenue, Dayton. Burial will follow at Dayton Memorial Park Cemetery.

I was so glad when Debbie and Otis moved in across the street from us on Woodsdale Road many years ago. This is how I met Debbie's mother Jenney and father Hendrik. I had many wonderful memories knowing Jenny especially our times together on vacation and the many New Years Eve parties. Jenny you were a remarkable lady, and I am sad that you had to leave us, but I'm happy God brought you to be with Him in his Heavenly Home and you are once again with your beloved Hendrik. God Bless you Jenny and all you children, grandchildren, family and many friends.
Love,
Pam Dodson-Price

I was blessed to have Jenny as next-door neighbor and precious friend for the last 7 1/2 years. We attended many monthly luncheons together, she even drug me to line-dancing with her at the Y. (she never missed a step). In our many long conversations, we shared our feelings freely, laughed a lot and solved most of the world problems.
Jenny leaves behind a living legacy in her family and old and dear friends who gave so much of themselves in loving and caring for her this last year so she could remain in the comfort of her own home.
The last time I talked with her, I told her that I had asked God when We both get to heaven, I wanted to be her next-door neighbor again. And if the next door spots were already taken, can I at least be in the same neighborhood forever. She smiled and said "forever and ever". I love you Jenny and I'll see you when I get there.
