March 13, 1931 - September 30, 2024

Our sweet loving Mom, Grandma, Great-Grandma, Wife, and Aunt passed away peacefully on September 30, 2024, at 6:45 am in the Chilliwack Hospital. Mom was born in Vienna on March 13, 1931, she married my dad on April 10, 1954. In 1975 my parents immigrated to Canada, Maple Ridge, BC where they lived and worked. In 2017 we moved my parents to Chilliwack to be closer to our family.

Mom is survived by her husband Hermann, daughter Silvia (Walter) Reisinger, granddaughters Ramona and Andrea, and great-granddaughters Rosalee, Shania and Mariah.

My mom lived her life to the fullest and was truly a beautiful angel. She will remain in the hearts of everyone that was blessed to meet her.

What I Know ...

I know you soar with angels now

And that your heart has wings.

I know you're watching over me

Whatever this world brings.

I know you were a gift from God

And that you're safe above.

I know I will see you again

And once more feel your love.

I know you live in Heaven now

And that I must go on.

I know my heart will ache for you

Until my time is done.
