It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to our beautiful Mom, Omi and friend Gisela Krieger.  Mom passed away suddenly on May 31st; she was surrounded by her family.  Predeceased by her loving husband Franz, and sister Margot, she is survived by her son Rudi (Jody); her daughter Andrea (Tony); her grandsons Alex, Nicky (Emily), Jayden; step grandson Corey (Sandra) and step-great granddaughter Everly.

Gisela was full of life; she loved to garden, her orchids, a walk around the Cedar Hill golf course, a nice glass of Prosecco, a good gossip magazine and any exciting sporting event.

Gisela was one of the owners of the Rathskeller Restaurant that was opened in the late 70’s with her husband Franz.  In the later years, the Rathskeller was owned and operated by her daughter Andrea, but Gisela would often pop in to say hello and to help out with the flower arrangements for the tables.

Gisela loved to spend summer days at Shawnigan Lake where she, Franz and family have had their cabin since the late 60’s … Lake dips, Boat rides, Saturday Night Lambsy games, and Martini Sunday, that was Shawnigan. Those days will always be remembered, and will never be the same.

No words can describe Gisela Krieger, she was our wonderful mother, a caring friend, she was Omi…

Mom you will never be forgotten, and truly missed…

We Love you.

Rudi and Andrea xoxoxo

Gisela’s home was her pride and joy.

Please join us for a Celebration of Life for family and friends, June 11, 2017, 1:00pm to 5:00pm at 1472 Banff Place, Victoria, BC.

    Sorry for your loss. My memory of your mom is of her standing in Banff Place, patiently rolling a beach ball back and forth to one of her grandchildren. No doubt she’ll be missed.
