In Honor of Susanne Bergman

Susanne Marie Bergman, 61, of Vienna, VA passed peacefully surrounded by her family on August 23, 2018. She is remembered as the loving wife and best friend of Christer for 43 years; mother of Hans, Christian and Fredrik; mother-in-law to Becca; grandmother of Eric and Zach; sister to Charlotte Jakobsson and as the most caring person in the world to many other relatives and friends in Sweden and in the US. 

Susanne worked for many years in Sweden, as a registered nurse and midwife, and was always caring for other people who needed a hand. She was also a strong advocate for animals and nature. Susanne will be remembered for her kindness, willingness to help others, her amazing cooking skills, her devotion to gardening in Sweden and in the US, and for being the glue holding together her family and many other groups. Residing in Vienna for the last 21 years, she was deeply involved with Westwood Women’s Golf, as well as being an enthusiastic Yoga and Pottery participant. Additionally, Susanne enjoyed travelling and hiking in Shenandoah, Sweden and other places around our globe. In recent years, her spare time was spent with kids and grandkids, and she enjoyed time in Sweden and onboard M/S Navitas.

She will always be remembered for her wisdom, her love for family and friends, and care for nature.
