We Remember
DOEHLER, Hildegard Helene
June 9, 1930 — October 21, 2021
Germany – Canada
Our beloved Hildegard Doehler, 91 years, passed away peacefully on October 21, 2021. Hildegard’s family and friends will miss her strong spirit, her understanding soul, and her humorous ways.
Born in Germany, Hildegard immigrated to Ontario, Canada in 1955. In 1972, she moved to British Columbia, where she and her husband, Hans, ran a business for 38 years. Together they had three children. She enjoyed travelling, and she visited many places in Europe and North America.
To live in the hearts of those we love is not to die, Hidegard will be remembered by her loving family: daughter Rosemary Doehler; son Harold Hans Doehler (Kelly Jobin); and her son-in-law Albert Stahel. She goes to join her beloved Hans Eugene Doehler, who passed in 2007; and their daughter Margaret Hildegard Stahel, who passed in 2018.
The family would like to extend their gratitude towards Maria and Reiner Teschinski, for their kindness.

My condolences to all of the family, I first met Hildegard and Hans in 1980 when I moved to Penticton to own and operate a motel, what a lovely and friendly family they were, We became close friends and enjoyed many happy times and visits together and I loved them dearly, I have kept in touch with Hildegard for the rest of her life and will miss her dearly, she always told me, God loves you too and so do I. She loved life , food, flowers and most of all people. Rest in peace my dear friend, God loves you to, and now you are with him and Hans and Margaret. Your loving friend Maureen.
My thoughts and prayers are with you both. May she rest in peace. Love you
Dear Family,
we met Hildegard at Christ Lutheran Church and had many lovely conversations over the years with her after the church services. She was always so very kind and friendly.
We admired the lovely flower tributes that were left at our church in her memory and learned that she loved flowers. Hildegard will be missed very much in our congregation.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all and we would like to send heartfelt condolences.
