It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Margrit Betke of Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, who passed away on August 13, 2025, at the age of 58, leaving to mourn family and friends. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid farewell to this cherished soul, solace is taken in the memories held dear — the laughter shared, the wisdom imparted, the moments of quiet reflection in their presence. Though Margrit may no longer walk among us, her spirit lives on in the echoes of her kindness, the warmth of her embrace, and the light of her enduring love.
She is survived by: her parents, Wilfried Betke and Ludmilla Betke; her siblings, Elisabeth Mursch (Andree) and Ulrich Betke (Katja Sauerborn); her siblings' children, Caroline Hasenberg, Erik Hasenberg, Richard Betke and Johanna Betke; her pet Shilah; Jonathan Macgowan.
