Obituary: Kirsten Lemvigh Ransom Fiercely proud of her heritage, Kirstens favorite saying was I was born Danish, I live Danish, and Ill die Danish. However, her life encompassed many countries and cultures that each had an influence on her. A natural extrovert, Kirsten loved to interact with people, enabling her to make friends and feel at home all over the world. Danish Beginnings Born in 1942 in Copenhagen during the Nazi occupation of Denmark, Kirstens early years were characterized by the economic hardships of post-war Europe. While her father Gunnar Lemvigh worked to build a career as an actor in the Danish Theater, her mother Inger instilled in her a frugality and tenacity that would serve her well throughout her life. Kirstens innate aptitude for languages enabled her to master English, German, and French while in the Danish Gymnasium or high school. her white hat (a symbol of graduation from Gymnasium), Kirsten then lived in Paris for a year to further perfect her French at the Sorbonne. She also began to meet people of different nationalities, explore new cultures, and develop her own cosmopolitan flair. graduating from the Sorbonne, 20-year-old Kirsten returned to Denmark and enrolled in a business school to become a multi-lingual secretary. She never finished the program because of a chance meeting with a Swedish travel arranger, who offered her a job in Egypt. She jumped at the chance for an adventure in a new country, and three days later she was on a plane to Cairo as an assistant tour guide. Naturally quick on her feet, Kirsten honed her bargaining skills while negotiating with camel drivers, shop keepers, hotel owners, bus company executives, and others to get the services her tour groups required. Next, Kirsten was assigned by her tour company to Cyprus. The company also occasionally had her lead groups on a tour called In the Footsteps of Jesus through Israel and Jordan, even though she knew little of those countries and only had school knowledge of Jesus. Undaunted, she navigated these new lands successfully, although during one of these tours she and her group had to be evacuated out of Damascus by the UN due to erupting conflicts. Political tensions in Cyprus caused Kirsten to relocate to Athens, Greece. While there, she meet Gerald Elliot, an American soldier whom she married and moved with to Fort Sheridan, Illinois. As an Army wife living on base, she once again quickly adapted to her new surroundings. She worked as a waitress until giving birth to her first daughter Kathrine in 1965. Soon after, her marriage ended in divorce and she returned to Denmark with her daughter. Kirsten worked to re-establish herself in the travel industry while balancing single motherhood. This fortunately included a six-month stay in Sicily with an Italian family that helped her to acquire her seventh language. She then landed a position at Spies Travel, which grew into one of Scandinavias largest charter travel companies. Thus at the beginning of 1973, Kirsten was an experienced travel industry professional with proficiency in multiple languages, honed negotiating and people skills, and a great job with one of the best travel companies in Denmark. Little did she know a whole new chapter of her life was about to begin when she met American Tom Ransom on Midsummers Eve of that year aboard a Greek cruise ship docked in Copenhagen harbor. a one year courtship, Kirsten married Tom in the historic Frederiksberg Round Church on 7th 1974. honeymooned in Rome and Sorento in Italy and invited Toms parents along. As they were the only members of Toms family to make the long trip from Iowa to Copenhagen for the wedding, Kirsten said there was no way she was going to just leave them behind on their own in Denmark. The Expatriate Years As an expatriate working for Bank of America in Copenhagen, Tom proved a perfect match for Kirsten in that he, too, wanted to experience the cultures of different countries. Together they traveled every chance they got around Europe, usually to Spies Travel destinations taking advantage of Kirstens inside connections. In 1975 the family had home leave in America and Kirsten met many of Toms family in Iowa for the first time. In 1977, their daughter Viveka arrived two months premature so she had to stay a couple of months in the hospital before coming home. In , Bank of America offered Tom a post in Karachi, Pakistan. So after almost 5 years in Denmark, the family was off on a new adventure in of that year. Kirsten found herself the mem-saab or mistress of a large villa staffed with several servants, one of whom was Sheila Human, a young woman from Sri Lanka. Working as a nanny, Sheila was instantly attached to Viveka and became part of the family with her husband Cyril. later had a daughter whom they named Viveka after Kirstens child. For the rest of her life, Kirsten kept in touch with them and visited occasionally. In 2013, she and Tom even attended the wedding of Sheila and Cyrils Viveka in London. In 1979, Kirsten and her family were evacuated from Pakistan due to riots that resulted in the partial burning of the American embassy in Islamabad. a sojourn in London, Tom was offered a new position in Cairo, Egypt with Bank of America in 1980. Given Kirstens prior experience in Egypt including her Arabic language skills, she was confident she could handle another adventurous post so off the family went to Africa. Kirsten immediately began introducing herself to the local expatriate community via the American school and the American embassy, which she had also done in Pakistan to build a support network. She also discovered that the American Church had a significant presence, including a very active womens group that continued... |
