- Honoring Her Late Son's Memory
On a bittersweet day, Dagmar Wöhrl (70) took to Instagram, rememoring her beloved son Emanuel who tragically passed away at 12 years old. The fatal incident occurred on July 1, 2001, after falling from a house's rooftop. Marking his birthday, Dagmar wrote an emotional tribute, "Today, 37 years ago, you finished our happiness, our family. Today, I find myself staring at your photos and reminiscing. I strive to be strong and celebrate this day with joy, but this heavy sorrow suddenly overwhelms me."
Contemplating Lingering Questions
In her heartfelt post, Dagmar couldn't help but think of the questions that have haunted her throughout her life, dreams of another chance to witness her son growing up. "If only I could glimpse your appearance today. Would you have started a family? Would you have ventured abroad? What profession would you have chosen?" The fond memories of her son's laughter and vivacious spirit served as a "radiant beacon illuminating me in dark periods." Emanuel's impact on her life was indelible, holding a special place that no one else could ever fill. She closed with, "Happy Birthday, Manu! May heaven rejoice in your honor. Love, Mama."
A Life Filled with Joy and Love
Born in 1988, Emanuel was the firstborn to Dagmar and entrepreneur Hans Rudolf Wöhrl (76). The couple, who married in 1984, were bestowed with two remarkable sons, Marcus, born in 1985, and Emanuel in 1988.
