Obituary of Maria Wyslouzil

Our dear Mom and Oma has passed away in peace and full of gratitude. She lived life to the fullest, cherished her beloved family, get-togethers with relatives and friends, enjoyed her travels, climbing, hiking and skiing the beautiful mountains of Tirol (Austria), the Dolomites (Suedtirol), the Rocky Mountains of Western Canada and Haida Gwaii, surrounded by the Pacific Ocean. Singing was her lifelong passion and she really enjoyed the events and gatherings of the Austrian Society where she could sing with the "Alpentrio" her native traditional folksongs.. She was also an honorary member of the Austrian Society, proud recipient of the Silver Medal of Merit from the Republic of Austria and received the decoration of Merit in Gold from the Austrian Canadian Council. She was our "herzensgute" Mom to Reinhart, Klaus (Michelle), Elisabeth (Gerald); Oma to Jamie-Maria (Chris) Nikolaus, Kellen (Julie). Predeceased by dear husband Edi. Greatly missed by brothers-in-law Dago (Lore) Hans (Cathy), Walter (Lorna), by many nieces and nephews, many dear relatives in Tirol (Zillertal) and all the treasured friends of our family; especially dear Karin, her music and singing companion for over 40 years. We will miss you Mom for the happiness you brought and the love you gave. A sincere thank you to the helpful and caring people of Bayshore Home Care and the dedicated staff of the May Court Hospice. Special thanks to Dr. Shamim Taherzadeh-Malmiri and Dr. Stuart Kurtz. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at a later date after cremation has taken place.
