Heartbroken mother of Dahlmeier showcases a poignant piece of jewelry

In the picturesque town of Krün, Upper Bavaria, Susi Dahlmeier, the mother of the late ex-biathlete Laura Dahlmeier, shared a deeply personal piece of jewelry on her Instagram account. The pendant, titled "Bridge to Paradise," was created as a tribute to Laura, who tragically passed away while mountaineering in Pakistan.

The pendant, intricately designed, symbolizes a journey or transition, with stylized mountains, a bridge with a heart, a star, and a curved "L" below. The title suggests a connection to a celestial or heavenly realm, serving as a remembrance and tribute to Laura's memory.

Laura Dahlmeier, a two-time Olympic champion and seven-time world champion in biathlon, grew up in Krün. Her sudden death occurred at an altitude of 5,700 meters on Laila Peak, where she was mountaineering with her rope partner. She was hit by falling rocks during the climb.

Susi's emotional post, featuring the special necklace, was shared three weeks after Laura's passing. Many Instagram users reacted emotionally to the pendant, with one follower writing that with love and trust, Laura grew and strengthened her own path. Another commented that Laura has crossed the bridge to paradise and now watches over as a guardian angel.

The "Bridge to Paradise" pendant has been reported on by several media outlets, highlighting Susi's heartfelt tribute to her daughter. Susi, who runs a jewelry workshop in Krün, crafted this piece as a way to keep Laura's spirit close and honor her legacy.

This tragic loss has left a profound impact on the biathlon community and beyond. Laura's spirit, however, lives on through the "Bridge to Paradise" pendant, a symbol of love, remembrance, and the enduring bond between a mother and her child.
