Fred spent many years up north mining in Snowlake. He enjoyed visits with his family and often made the trips after his shifts to Winnipeg and Invermay, Saskatchewan. In the 1970s when Fred and Jean moved back to Winnipeg he bought his first truck of which he was so proud. Fred loved to take his grandson for rides in the big truck. After he retired Fred loved playing bingo, going to the casino and of course his cars. The family wishes to express our special thanks to Fred's special friends Steve and Jean.

I always got to hear a little bit about the kids or grand kids every time I saw Fred. He was always so proud to talk about all of you. Jean, I remember our best times at South Beach. We had some good times there and still see the smile on his face. Take care Jean and family. Tracy - Posted by: Tracy Cewick (Friend) on: Aug 14, 2012
