Memory in autumn: Borussians are reminiscent of the deceased and their inheritance
Memory in autumn: Borussians are reminiscent of the deceased and their inheritance
Autumn, with its cooler temperatures and long nights, often brings with it a thoughtful mood. The transience of life becomes aware, especially on days like the Dead Sunday. In these darker months, the memory of the deceased comes to the fore, which is particularly noticeable on this significant day.
On the dead Sunday, the Borussians not only commemorate their deceased members, but also honor the common memories and the time they were allowed to spend. The deceased who have left the club family in recent months include:
honor of the missed companions
- Walter Gaes , who, as a youth leader and trainer, committed to promoting young talent
- Wilfried Heidenmann , an honorary member and loyal supporter of the association
- Ferdi Keller , former international and ambitious 2nd league player
- Karl Ringel , who had a great influence as a honorary captain
- Günther Schröder , our Bundesliga player, who conquered many hearts
- Matthias Woll , president, honorary member and tireless supporter
These people have left their mark and their voices are now silent. But the memories of beautiful moments live on. Despite the sadness associated with loss, it is important to be aware that the connection created by football is stronger than death. Every game and every victory reminds us of those who have preceded us and who continue to accompany us in their own way.
A friend of a friend of his late comrades gets it in a nutshell: "We thank you that we were able to accompany you a piece of your way. Now you have preceded us ..." The light that ends from the deceased remains and gives us comfort in difficult times.
The dead Sunday not only offers space for grief, but also for gratitude. A day that gives us the opportunity to pause, think and appreciate the values that connect us. Football remains a fascinating game that connects people beyond life and creates memories that remain forever. Learn more about the honorary words for the dead Sunday.
