Louise Bergen

Louise Bergen (nee Delesky) went to be with her Lord and Savior on October 9, 2015 at the Cascade Hospice in Chilliwack, BC. Louise was the first child of Gerhard and Susanna Delesky, born January 24, 1925 in Ukraine, Russia. Later that year she immigrated to Canada with her parents and together with her siblings grew up on a farm in southern Manitoba. She pursued her childhood passion to become a teacher, teaching in southern Manitoba and later in British Columbia after her family moved to Chilliwack in 1944.

Louise married Frank Bergen in 1948, raised their family, taught many years of Sunday School and was active in the farm business. She enjoyed baking, hosting meals for special family events and sending people cards for most every occasion. Louise was predeceased by her husband Frank and is lovingly remembered by her children: Susan (Juergen), Philip (Joyce), David (Darlene), Allen (Pamela), 5 grandchildren and a large extended family.
