It is with great love and deep sadness that the family of Louise Feldmann share her peaceful passing on October 24th/2025 at the age of 88 years at the Invermere District Hospital.

Louise was born in Austria on March 17th, 1937. She was the 3rd youngest of 7 children. At the age of 17 she went to work in Switzerland, that is where she met Franz. In 1958 they got married in Glarus, Switzerland. Their daughter Louise was born in Switzerland. They came to Canada in 1960 and had two more children Sylvia and Frank.

In 1963 they purchased a homestead behind Wilmer, which through years of hard work and dedication is now known as the Feldmann Ranch. This is where Louise lived for the remainder of her life. Together with Franz she raised cattle, crops and three children, and cared for her grandchildren when needed.

Louise was an excellent cook; she always made sure everyone was fed well and never left the house hungry. She never forgot the family’s birthdays and made the best Black Forest cakes for the occasion. She loved tending to her beautiful flower beds and huge garden. In her free time, she enjoyed reading and doing her word search puzzles. Her favorite TV shows were Wheel of Fortune, Family Feud, and cooking shows, and of course wrestling. Louise enjoyed her 30 years with the Invermere Health Auxiliary.

Anyone who knew Louise knew how much she loved her entire family. She played such a vital role not only raising her own children, but also all her grandchildren.

Louise is survived by her husband of 67 years, Franz. Her 3 children; Louise (Greg), Sylvia (Dave), Frank (Sasha).

Her grandchildren Jordan, Melanie, Stephanie, Cody, Jocelyn, and Makenna.

She also leaves many other family members and friends who will sadly miss her.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date at the Feldmann Ranch.
