Obituary for Doreen Della Fleguel (Behnke)
A Mother is your first friend, your best friend, your forever friend
It is with the heaviest of hearts and much sorrow that we announce the peaceful passing of Doreen Fleguel surrounded by her family on Thursday, March 31, 2022 in her 88th year. Doreen Fleguel (Behnke) of Schutt, is the beloved wife of Garfield Fleguel of 68 years and devoted and loving mother to Colleen (Robert Vassos), Mitchell (Kim) and Darrell (Darlene). Dear Grandma to Kristen and Ashley McLaren; Larissa, Alexander and Hilary Vassos; and Nicholas Fleguel. Predeceased by her daughter Sandra (Ivan McLaren), her parents David Behnke and Erda Weiland and her brothers Edwin and Kenny. Sister of Lois, Percy (the late Marlene), Raymond (Jean), Howard, Barbara (Bill Burgess), Calvin, Gary (Wilma) and Deanna (Laurie Vernick).
Doreen loved being in her kitchen where she spent endless hours baking and cooking for her family. She baked the best apple pie in the world, and every other kind of pie you can name, along with all our favourite cookies, cakes and squares. Her home was her castle and she constantly worked at keeping it clean and spotless. She will be deeply missed by her family and fondly remembered by many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends.
To the world you are a Mother but to your family Mom, you are the world. We will always hold you close within our hearts until we meet again in Heaven where we will spend eternity together.
Visitation will be held at St. Stephen's Lutheran Church, Schutt on Wednesday from 2-4 & 6-8pm. A Funeral Service will take place on Thursday, April 7, 2022 at 11am. Spring interment will take place in St. Stephen's Lutheran Cemetery at a later date. As an expression of sympathy, donations to St Stephen’s Lutheran Church, Schutt would be appreciated by the family.
The family requests that strict Covid restrictions be in place during visitations and funeral service – masking & distancing is required at all times.
