We Remember
SCHULER, Elizabeth
July 10, 1930 — April 29, 2026
Elizabeth Schuler passed away peacefully on April 29, 2026, at the age of 95.
Born in Nyiregyhaza, Hungary, Elizabeth’s world was far removed from the life she would eventually build. She met the love of her life, Karl, in 1952, and the two married in 1957, embarking almost immediately on a great adventure: a new life in Canada. They arrived in Calgary in January of that year, and it was there that their son, Karl, was born in 1958.
In 1979, Elizabeth and Karl followed another dream westward to Kelowna, BC, where they owned and operated the Golden Sands Motel. When Elizabeth retired at 60, she turned her considerable energy toward the two things that brought her the deepest joy: her grandchildren, Karleen and Ali, and her flower gardens. She cherished them both beyond measure. Active in her church community, she was a woman who loved to sing, dance, and fill a room with warmth and laughter.
Elizabeth is survived by her son, Karl Schuler; and her grandchildren, Karleen Elizabeth Lewis and Alexandra Lorraine Schuler. She was predeceased by her beloved husband, Karl Schuler; her parents, Jozsef and Erzsebet Fizel; and her brothers, Jozsef, Janos, and Lazslo Fizel.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Heart and Stroke Foundation.
A Celebration of Life, with Celebrant Kim Bergstrom officiating, will be held on Saturday, May 9, 2026, at 4:00 PM (PDT), at Springfield Funeral Home, 2020 Springfield Road, Kelowna, BC.

Karl, Karlene and Ali, Sending you all hugs and condolences. Words fall short at times such as this, but my thoughts and prayers to you and yours.
Much love, Mallalea
RIP Elizabeth.
Karl – Finding new words to say is tough, especially after all the talking we have been doing for the past number of months.. Your kindness and caring shown to your Mom in these past few years has been nothing short of phenomenal.
She is at rest now, and your work is almost done.
Much Love,
So sorry for your loss Karl and family. Your mom was full of laughter and it was always great to see her all those years at Arbuckle and hear her stories. Your gift of love taking care of her these past few years was truly inspiring and amazing! Kath and I are here for you always, any time. Karleen and Ali, so sorry for your loss. So great you were able to spend Christmas with your Grandma. She loved you so much!
