SCHEIDER, Irene (Oma)  - Irene Scheider, beloved wife of Franz (D), passed away peacefully on Monday, December 11, 2017, in her 90th year.

Oma was cherished by her son, Wolfgang, his wife Gail Beggs, grandaughter Krystin, grandson Blake and Blake's partner, Leona.

A proud Canadian, Irene immigrated from Frankfurt, Germany with Franz and Wolfgang in 1953, making her home in Toronto.

Irene loved her friends and extended family, her life in Don Mills, her cottage in the Haliburton Highlands and all animals, regularly feeding wild birds, stray cats and walking neighbours' dogs.

Oma was able to continue to live in her own home thanks to the friendship and support of caring neighbours, Gudi, Sandeep and Helma. At North York General Hospital, Oma received excellent care from the team on 8 West.

While we miss Oma already, we are happy to think of her reunited with Franz.

If you desire, we know Oma would appreciate a donation to the Nature Conservancy of Canada.

A celebration of Irene's life will be planned for the new year.
