Luisa Christina Sliger

Luisa Christina Sliger (57), passed away unexpectedly on September 26, 2021 in Tacoma WA. She was the wife of Mark Sliger and they made their home in Bellevue, WA where they shared 32 years of marriage. She was the mother of Chloe Sliger (28) and Sophie Sliger (23).

Luisa was born in Toppenish, WA on September 4th, 1964. She was the daughter of Nina Quemuel and Turquiano (Terry) Haber. She graduated from high school in Germany and also attended Yakima Valley College in Yakima, WA.

She was employed at WESCO Sales Group in Bellevue, WA where she was responsible for office administration and customer service.

She was a member of St. Louise Parish and enjoyed the opportunity to volunteer in the Parish School when her kids were young. Luisa loved to putter around her yard and tend her potted plants as well as her indoor succulents, cacti, and air plants. She was a proud mother and attended all her two daughters sporting events through the years and loudly cheered and showed her support for them and their teams. Luisa will be remembered for her caring, nurturing, and strong personality. She made friends easily and could be counted on by those in need. She enjoyed staying up late and rising late. She was also a great cook, and her family and friends were especially thankful when she made lumpia! She loved to read and always had her Kindle with her. Cannon Beach, Oregon was a very special place for Luisa and she loved her annual trips to the beach to celebrate her birthday and anniversary. Wine tasting and weekends spent on short trips were something she really enjoyed.

Luisa was preceded in death by her mother and father. Surviving family members include her husband Mark Sliger; daughter Chloe and future son in law James Smet both of Oakland CA, and daughter Sophie Sliger of Bellevue, WA; sister Theresa Hines of Yakima, WA; brothers James Haber of Naches, WA; Jeff Haber of Bellevue, WA; mother in law Betsy McCabe of Poulsbo, WA; and many other aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.
