Audrey Ann Riller

She leaves to mourn, her son Paul Leathers and daughter-in-law Trudy Golley; second cousin, Pam Fillion (Ray) and family; and her many, many local and international friends.

Audrey was predeceased by parents, Bill and Gladys Riller; brother Carl; ex-husband Winston Leathers; and partner Derek Louden.

Audrey was born in Victoria and raised in Winnipeg, MB. She graduated from the Winnipeg School of Art specializing in ceramics and printmaking, and was best known for her Pop Art Feminist imagery, use of innovative Day-Glo colours, and digital xerography. After retiring from teaching art at St. John’s Ravenscourt School for twenty-six years, she returned to Victoria and travels to Australia—where she met Derek—Europe, North America, South America, and Southeast Asia soon followed.

Special thanks to caregiver David Blankenborg, and the doctors and staff at Royal Jubilee Hospital.

As per Audrey’s wishes there will be no service, cremation has taken place. In lieu of flowers, donations to your local art gallery’s educational programming would be appreciated.
