GEORGE A. FROESE George lived life abundantly, a servant of Jesus Christ and to all those he met. After a short battle with cancer, George passed away peacefully into the loving arms of his Heavenly Father on December 30, 2017 at the age of 81, with his devoted wife of 61 years by his side. George was predeceased by his son Warren, and several brothers and sisters from the large Froese clan. He will be dearly missed by his wife Verna; children Murray and Teresa, and Sandy; grandchildren Matthew, Daniel, Sarah and Taylor, James, Mike and Kristen; the remaining members of the Froese and Penner families as well as many, many friends.

Condolences & Memories (10 entries)

  • George was my boss at my first real job. He had a huge heart and always looked to develop people to be their best. He never wavered from his principles and lived his life full of love for his family and energy for life. Over 30 years later, I would still think of him often. The world is a little darker now. - Posted by: Jeff King (Friend) on: Mar 19, 2018

  • Verna and Family, Very sorry to hear of Georg's passing. He was one of life's true characters and loved being in a room with him. George impressed me with his values, the way he spoke of his family (and how proud he was of you, Verna, and success of the children and the joy of the grandchildren. From time to time I would bump into him and he still would bring a smile for the day. He will be very much missed. Our sincerest condolences to the entire family.
