IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Birgit M
Grove
June 3, 1926 – January 1, 2026
Birgit M. Grove, age 99, of Delray Beach, Florida, passed away peacefully on January 1, 2026.
Birgit was born in Karlskrona, Sweden, to Allan Vilhelm Grondahl and Marta Margareta (née Andersson) Grondahl. She lived a long and full life defined by devotion to family, generosity of spirit, and a love for life's simple and grand pleasures.
She is survived by her daughter, Agneta Walldorf; her grandchildren, Anna Walldorf, Jesper Walldorf, Maria Zondervan, Carl-Mikael Bengtsson, siblings, Hans-Göran Gröndahl, and Alfhild Näsström. She was preceded in death by her late husband, Arthur Caplan and beloved sons, Anders Bengtsson and Christor Bengtsson.
Birgit will be fondly remembered for her unwavering generosity and deep love for her family. She was always looking out for her loved ones, offering guidance, care, and help whenever it was needed, often putting others before herself. Her kindness and willingness to support her family financially and emotionally left a lasting impact on all who knew her.
She had a passion for shopping and traveling, embracing adventures that took her around the world. An amazing cook and gracious host, Birgit found great joy in gathering family and friends around her table, creating warm memories through unforgettable meals and lively dinner parties. She also had a lifelong love of water and the beach, always choosing to live near a lake or the ocean, where she felt most at peace.
