Omsk bids farewell to beloved former mayor Viktor Shreider on March 12
A memorial service for Viktor Shreider, the former mayor of Omsk, will take place on March 12, 2023. The ceremony will honour the 74-year-old, remembered by his family as a deeply kind and caring man. His final public appearance as mayor was in October 2017, when he handed over his duties to Sergey Voronov.
Viktor Shreider's farewell ceremony will be held at the Regional Center for Social and Public Organizations. The event is scheduled from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM, followed by his burial at the Old Northern Memorial Cemetery.
His daughter, Veronica Lorenz, described him as 'the ideal man and a saint of a person.' She recalled his warmth, kindness, and unwavering support for his loved ones. Despite his public role, he always remained attentive to his family. In his final months, Shreider faced serious illness but tried to shield his family from worry. Throughout his life, he was known for his generosity, always ready to help others. His legacy extends beyond his political career, leaving behind a reputation for compassion and dedication.
The service will mark the end of a life devoted to both public service and family. Shreider's memory will live on through those who knew him as a leader, a father, and a man of extraordinary kindness. His burial will follow immediately after the memorial gathering.
