We mourn the loss of Heide Köhler, born Oct. 30, 1940 in Hildesheim, Germany and passed away Feb. 5, 2014 in 100 Mile House, B.C., Canada.
Heide was born in Germany and grew up with two sisters. About 30 years ago, she and her husband Walter left Germany to move to Canada and live in B.C. They began life here living for a long time in Lac la Hache and soon they became proud Canadians.
They met many, many good friends. The grandchildren loved their holidays in Canada and had a lot of fun. About 26 years ago Walter’s son Joachim lost his life in an accident with his horse. Walter and Heide had a very difficult time. They later moved into 100 Mile House and were very happy being in town. Both Heide and Walter had the loveliest time of their lives in Canada, but they missed their family in Germany.
When Walter passed away in 2004 Heide had one more difficult time, but all her friends and neighbours helped and supported her through this. Heide was very busy volunteering at Fischer Place, her kind and friendly personality made her very popular. Despite her own illness she took care of others in need and she truly liked to do this. Heide had great fortune with her friends and neighbours, always friendly and very helpful, particularly in the last days of her life. Thank you so much to Dr. Street, the nurses and all the friends who were so close to Heide, those who helped her through the difficult months and the last days of her life.
Heide we will miss you,
with love, your family and all of your friends.
