Silvia Leibundgut
October 8, 1934 – June 29, 2023
Silvia in her 89th year, passed away on June 29, 2023 at the RVRHC due to complications from a surgery. She died peacefully with her family and some close friends by her side.
Sadly missed by her children Mark (Debbie) Gruering, Alison Gruering, brother Tony (Barbara) Steinmann, grandchildren Craig (Laura) and Janelle, great grandchildren Saphira, Autumn and Lealand and many nieces and nephews.
Predeceased by her husbands Rudy and Alphonse, her parents Alfred and Alice Steinmann, sister Erika, brother-in-law Lulu Blumenfeld and her nephew Stan Blumenfeld.
Silvia was known for being strong willed and her love for life. Her smile and kindness touched everyone who met her.
Her passion for numbers and finance as well as doing volunteer work for many organizations kept her busy, but she always made time for family and friends.
Silvia was an avid gardener, knitter, reader, bowler and enjoyed yoga. Anyone who knew her also knows of her love for driving her car perhaps sometimes with too much passion on the gas peddle.

The interment will be held at the Old Stone Church (1490 Durham Regional Rd 15, Beaverton, ON) on Monday August 14, 2023 and 10:30 am.
In lieu of flowers, Silvia ask that any donations be made to the place that meant so much to her over the past 35 years, St. James United Church – General Fund.
