Thelma Bruggema

We loved your Grandma. She was one classy lady. Being a lover of shoes, I'll never look at another pair of Salvatore Ferragamo shoes without thinking of Thelma. With her passing comes the end of an era, but what a grand representative she was of that era. Our sincere condolances to Jill, and the other members of her immediate and extended family.

We are proud to count, Thelms Smith Bruggema among our alumni of the Blodgett School of Nursing. She was a fine example of our profession and the last remaining member of the class of 1932. She remained interested in the alumni and attended events even in her later years. She will be missed by all who knew her. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family as they mourn for this great lady! Sincerely, Esther Nielsen VanHammen, class of 1946, Blodgett Alumni Assn.
