The news of this loss has been too shocking for all of us who knew Birgit, and I would like to extend my deepest condolences to her family and friends.
The grieving will be long and painful, but l want as many of you do too, to celebrate her life.
Unfortunately I did not know Birgit too well, and l do not know about her life as a wife and mother, a part of her life which rightly so everyone is celebrating. But I want to speak a word about her previous life, when she was here studying in Leuven, maybe not too many people know that from her new friends.
All I can say therefore in addition, but which is equally important, is that Birgit was one of the most intelligent, skillful, and hardworking young women I have ever met, and she could have been a great scholar too. I hope her children hear that often about her, are proud of their mother and continue in her steps.

Dear,
Lot’s of strength in these difficult times. I’ve known Birgit during highschool and then we met again whilst studying at Hogeschool Gent. Always nice, smiling, .... I noticed that never changed. Although it’s been years ago I keep great memories. Feeling so sorry for you all. This is so unfair :-(.
You’re in my memories since I’ve read this sad news! May Birgit rest in peace. Sending you lot’s of courage for the future.

Gone too soon. I couldn't have asked for a nicer co-worker. I'll always reflect on our many conversations about 80's pop music and the occasional sing-a-long. My thoughts and prayers are with Rocky and the family.

Although I didn't know Birgit in person, I felt connected to her because of her mom sharing news about her daughter, son in law and both kids. Benjamin was born in the same year as my daughter which made me closer to Lieve as she was sharing pregnancy news from her daughter with me.
It's has been heartbreaking to hear what she went through and how fast she is no longer of this world now. But she lives further in her boys.
Wishing the whole family a lot of strength dealing with the loss of this young mom.

Corey,
I am so sorry to hear of this news. I cannot even begin to think of words that could express my sorrow and condolences. I cherished the time that I got to know your wife as an integral part of the 17th MP DET family. She was a very loving and supportive woman, who was a blessing to be around. I offer my deepest condolences and sympathy. If I could ever be of any assistance, please let me know. I know this is hard but please keep your head held high and continue to live the life she showed us all. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
