<div itemprop="description"> <b> Caplan, Brigitte Ursula </b> (n&eacute;e Zimmermann) <br /> <br /> Died suddenly at age 83 on Tuesday, November 15, 2011, at North York General Hospital, from complications of congestive heart failure. Wife of the late Lionel, mother of Michael Robin, sister of Christine and the late Hans-Wolf, daughter of the late Wolfgang and Johanna, beloved aunt, and cherished friend to many. <br /> <br /> Her brilliant spirit was matched only by her humility, her devotion to others and to her family, especially her son, her passion for nature and for animals, her interest in the arts and love of music, her dedication to lifelong learning, and her unfailing patience and sense of humour. <br /> <br /> She was, simply, the best. She was deeply loved, and she will be greatly missed. <br /> <br /> A Toronto memorial service will be held on Sunday, December 4, from 2:00 to 4:00 pm in the Coach House at the Estates of Sunnybrook <i> (see below) </i> . This will be followed on December 17th by a memorial in Germany, where her ashes will be buried. <br /> <br /> In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Toronto Humane Society or any animal welfare organization.</div>
