We Remember

PFLIGER, Anne (neé Flegel)

July 14, 1925 — March 15, 2019

Anne Pfliger, age 93 years young passed away quickly and peacefully, surrounded by her loving family members at Tabor Care Home in Abbottsford, BC on Friday, March 15, 2019.

Born in Grayson, Saskatchewan to Frank and Rose Flegel, Anne married Thomas Pfliger (predeceased 2008) in October 1947, together they lived the majority of their lives in Kelowna, BC.

Anne was predeceased by her sisters Mary Horning, Julia Dietrich and Matilda Balch and brothers Adam and Joe Flegel.  She is survived by her brother John (Bev) Flegel and sister Theresa Graf.  She will be greatly missed by her children June Matheuszik, Laurel (Doug) Phyall and Terry Pfliger; her grandchildren Patricia Phyall, Ryan (Dara) Matheuszik, Kimberlee (Ricardo) Araya, Cassandra (Peter) Smith and Bradyn and Amber Pfliger; her great grandchildren Reid and Sebastian Araya, Liam and London Smith and Amara Phyall.  She is also survived by her many nephews and nieces, too many to list here.

She will be fondly remembered for her quick wit, good sense of humour and as a loving mother, grandmother and great grandmother (GG).   Anne had a remarkable green thumb and loved to garden, growing both flowers and vegetables in any area she could cultivate, including pots on her deck in later years.

A Funeral Mass will be celebrated by Father Wayne Pfliger at 11:00 am on Saturday, June 22, 2019 at Corpus Christi Catholic Church, 750 Rutland Rd., Kelowna, BC. Burial of Anne’s ashes will be in St. Theresa’s Cemetery next to Tom.  The family would like to thank the staff of the Tabor Care Home for their excellent care of Anne in her last months.  In lieu of flowers donations will be gratefully accepted by the Canadian Cancer Society.  If you wish to send a condolence, post photos or share a memory, please scroll down the page to the area called “Condolences.”

Testimonials

They took care of me like family.

Judith Szabo

Everything was so organized and pertinent to what we needed. Everyone we met was kind, courteous and very helpful during our emotional and challenging time. Thank you so much.

Heather Mayne

They were so prompt on answering any questions and changing things. They were prepared and respected any religious decisions. The process was so seamless and made easy in such a high stress situation.

Tanya Kohar

In the past 2 years Springfield has helped us through the death of my Mother and my Father. Their response and help allowed us to focus on the remaining family rather than worrying about details of the funeral and all the notifications that are required upon a death.

Terry Eldridge

The atmosphere has been nothing but professional during times of grief.  After the passing of my mother, the staff coached me on the next steps and looked after filling in all the government forms that I needed to sign, which took a huge burden off my mind at the time.

Donald McClure

Everyone was so helpful and kind.  There was no pressure.  They provided exactly what we needed.

Diane Greenwood

From the time I called to the completion of all the services, I received compassionate, attentive and professional care.  There was a sense of caring from each staff member.  I was turning over my Mom to their care and I felt very comfortable with everyone.  I felt heard and never felt pushed into any decision.

Katherine Lewis

I have always found the team at Springfield Funeral Home to be VERY caring, kind, considerate and helpful.  I have and will continue to recommend them to anyone who asks which funeral home would I suggest they use.  No other funeral home I have dealt with even comes close to Springfield Funeral Home.

Ethna Tutt

Right at the onset, I was made very comfortable, there was no pressure.  I was made to feel as if I was the only one they had to serve.

Frances Baum

Everything that was arranged for us was perfect.  Our loved one, husband, father, brother was treated with respect.  Thank you for making this difficult time a little more acceptable via your staff’s obvious caring and respect.
