Maria Krogemann

All of us who worked with Maria at Loews appreciated her generous spirit and always kind words. She always spoke of her pride in her children and her love of her grandchildren. We will always miss her.

Captain my Captain:
Suzanne and I are so sorry to hear about the loss of your Mother. Take comfort in knowing that her journey was a good one! There is no better testiment to that fact than yourself. You genuinly care about people and have passed on her love to those around you for as long as I’ve known you. Keep that up and her memory will burn bright.
All our love,
Pat ‘The Gay Au Pair’, Suzanne, Emerson and Molly

Dear Holger and family, Although I did not have the privilege of meeting Maria, we did talk briefly and e-mailed shortly after her diagnosis of Amyloidosis. As a support person for the UPstate area and myself an amyloidosis caretaker, I am aware of the trials this rarely diagnosed and often under diagnosed disease imposes. The knowledge and treatment of amyloidosis is far and in between, involving the hardship health care away from home and family support.
I was So Much Hoping to meet Maria and Holger at our next support group and So saddened to hear of the complications she encountered.
There are many of us scattered about fighting this same battle and Hoping and Praying for a real cure or sustainable treatment. Early diagnosis is the first line of defense. We can remember Maria in a way, by raising awareness of the battle she was fighting. Information to increase knowledge and support is on our web site at http://www.amyloidosissupport.com .
May you find comfort in the beautiful memories she has provided each of you.

Dear Holger, Jess and Ange, I know that you filled Maria’s life with love and happiness. She was always smiling and proud when she spoke of her family. She holds a special place in my heart. God bless you all. Love Pat

Dear Paula and family,
I wish I could be there to comfort you all with many wonderful memories that I shared with Maria before I moved to Califonia. It just goes to show you her life was remembered in all parts of the world.I can’t help but to remember Maria without smiling.
My prayers will be with you all. God Bless
Love, Sharon

Dear Paula, Ron, and Family: I am shocked and so very sad to hear of your loss. Hoping the good times and memories with Maria will bring you comfort and peace now, and in the difficult times ahead. May God keep you all in the palm of his hand and close to his heart. In deepest sympathy, Judy.

Holger, Angie, Jay and family, My deepest sympathy goes out to you. Maria was such a special person. Always smiling, always putting others first, always positive, and full of fun. I feel so blessed to have had Maria as one of my very closet friends for the last twelve years. I will cherish the memories of all the good times we had together. I will miss her everyday. Carol

Holger, JJ, and Angie-
We are so very deeply saddened to hear of Maria’s all too sudden passing. Her smile would light up a room and her presence was so amazing. Our family reunions will not be the same without her. Our thoughts and prayers are focused on you all. Sue

I am deeply saddened by Maria’s passing. We shared many good times during our childhood and later as adults. I am sure she will be caring for her loved ones from above. God bless you Maria.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. I worked with Maria at Lowe’s Macedon when the store first opened. She was a very dear friend to me. I will alway remember her smile and her laughing as we tried to learn the ropes of the new store together. I will never forget what a wonderful person she was and will always carry those memories of Maria in my heart. Lisa Venette (cashier Lowe’s)

I am so sorry for your loss. She was a very special person. I really enjoyed the short time I knew her. I really enjoyed playing our mandolins together. We will really miss her talent and music. May God bless you all.

I am so sorry to hear about my friend and co-worker Maria. She was such a great person
and an outstanding listener. A person you could tell something in confidence and it would
stay confidential. Always looked at the positive side of a problem. I always loved to hear about her vacations and her progress on a music instrument that she started playing a few years ago. I will truly miss my friend Maria.

I will remember Maria as a person that was always willing to give of herself. She was so soft-spoken, but yet really exuded a happiness that assured you that she just simply enjoying life. She was always willing to step up to the plate and give of herself whenever she could–and we all know that was often. I am glad I got to know her, even though it was only for a few years. Holger, you and your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers as I reflect on how lucky we all were to have her for the short time that we did. She made this world a warmer place for all of us. She will forever be in our hearts.

Jess & Family,

As one who lost my mom very recently, I sincerely share in your loss. Although the sadness is tremendous, I was reminded by an uncle that those who pass leave their undying spirit with their loved ones and friends. As I am still trying to do, I sincerely pray that you will find a little more comfort and peace as each day passes.

May God bless each one of you during this time.

Very Warm Regards,

Omar

Jess,
Please accept my deepest sympathies on the passing of your Mom. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless you and comfort you too during this very difficult time.

Maria was a delightful and happy lady. Maria and Holger always brightened my day when I found them working together at a show.

Maria, a sweeter lady I’ve ever known. It was one of my greatest pleasures to be your hairdresser for these past 13 years. You and Holger have become part of my ‘family’ and my heart is sad that we we have lost you way too soon. I will miss you Maria and I hope you know that I love you. I’ll still take good care of Holger for you, as far as my ability allows. Just think, you now have that full, wavy hair you always wished for. See you when it’s our turn. Love, Judy

To Maria’s family- I am so sorry for your loss. Maria was a incredible person. You must know that you are all she ever spoke about. She was especially proud of her grandkids. I enjoyed our ghost stories and talks about her vast knowledge of Palmyra. I will always remember her riding her bike to work and the chats we used to have when she would stop by my desk. She was full of joy and compassion as well as always having that smile on her face. I feel blessed having known her. She was a very special women.

We would like to extend our heartfelt sympathy to Maria’s family. There are no words to help ease the pain, but may you find comfort in knowing that friends are praying for you. Maria was truly a remarkable person, and she will be missed.

I MISS YOU SO MUCH!

Miss you mom every breath and heartbeat.
