Not sure what to say?

I feel very blessed to have known and spent time with Blossom and George in Anchor Point and later in Anchorage. Even though much time passed between my visits to Anchorage - Blossom always made you feel welcome and like you just talked yesterday! She will always hold a special place in my heart and will be greatly missed. My prayers go out to all the girls.

Aunt Blossom was such a sweet and loving person! She inspired me to study our family history by telling me about her childhood on Bremen Avenue. Her generosity in sharing her memories allowed me to get to know the story of the Luhrsen, Bruegger, and Langehennig families. I am so grateful that she was in my life.

My parents, myself & my siblings were all baptised, confirmed, married and some buried at Zion - I'm glad to see such a wonderful lady still loved the old church. God bless your family.

My Dearest Aunt Blossom. I had always wanted to come visit you in Alaska but never had the chance. I know you would have welcomed me in open arms. You are now at peace with your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
You are with Uncle George, My Mama and Daddy. Please give them all a hug for me.
You also can have a large family reunion with all who preceded you in death.
Heaven must be having a wonderful celebration since you walked thru their gates.
Love you.
