Condolences
Family and friends gathered for a graveside service for Beatrice Brugger in the La Grange City Cemetery on Saturday, Feb. 18. Pastor Jill Vivroux led this service with some special scripture readings and prayers. Afterwards, Garry Brugger and family hosted a fellowship at their home. Snacks were served and photo albums were paged through with fond memories. Cousins reminisced of memories they shared of time spent Grandma Bea. She loved to cook and share meals at her home. She was a strong-willed person that will be cherished and remembered by generations of children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandson on the way that will know her through family stories.
