Gretchen VanderWerf Obituary
We are sad to announce that on November 29, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Gretchen VanderWerf (Boulder, Colorado). Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Gretchen VanderWerf to show support.
In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Gretchen had on those she encountered along her journey. Though Gretchen may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, her essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.

She is survived by: her spouse Gigi Jones; and her siblings, Klasina VanderWerf (Tom Thomas), Julie Hill (John), Lisa Hawkins (Scott), Pieter VanderWerf (Shari) and Marte Singerman (Paul).
