Garden City, MN — The tight-knit community of Garden City is mourning the heartbreaking loss of Gracelyn Ziegler, a vibrant and compassionate 16-year-old who tragically lost her life in a car accident on June 19th.
Described by those who knew her as a source of light and kindness, Gracelyn touched countless hearts with her gentle spirit, warm smile, and deep love for her family. She especially embraced her role as a big sister—a role that defined much of her strength and compassion.
Gracelyn’s passing has left a profound void, especially as the community recalls the loss of her brother, Colttin, with whom she is now lovingly remembered as being reunited in heaven. Their memories continue to inspire all who were lucky enough to know them.
In the wake of this tragedy, a fundraiser has been established to support the Ziegler family during this incredibly difficult time. The overwhelming outpouring of love and generosity reflects the strong bonds and enduring spirit of Garden City residents.
