Marguerite “Marge” M. (Herwig) Breisch, 61, of Rural Plymouth, passed away on Monday, May
13, 2024 at Sunny Ridge Nursing Home & Rehabilitation Center in Sheboygan. She was born
on June 23, 1962 in Sheboygan a daughter of the late Harold and Eleanor (Boedecker) Herwig.
Marge was a 1980 graduate of Howards Grove High School. She went on to attend LTC from
1980 to 1981 receiving her certificate in Floral Design.
She was employed at Hoffmann’s Flowerland from 1981 until her retirement in 2023. On
January 31, 1987 Marge was united in marriage to David Breisch at Immanuel UCC in Town of
Herman. Marge was always up for adventure. She had taken a trip to Germany with her
grandparents in 1982. Marge had taken time off to be a stay-at-home mom while raising her
children. When her children were younger, they took many family vacations. In the last couple
of years Marge & David have taken day trips, excursions and even spent a week on a schooner
in Maine.
Marge was a faithful member of Immanuel UCC in the Town of Herman, where she was involved
with the flower committee and sang in the choir. David and Marge were treasures of the church
for 20 years. Recently they became members of Salem Ebenezer Reformed Church. Marge
was very talented, she crocheted, knitted, sewed, counted cross stitching, scrapbooked, and
made jewelry, but her big passion was flowers. Whether she was working in her flower beds at
home to helping customers at Hoffmann’s making their special day come to life or helping a
grieving family give their loved one the feel of being loved through the flowers.
