With great sorrow, we announce the passing of Dennis Friesen of Kleefeld, Manitoba; beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. On Friday, October 10, 2025, his fight with cancer ended peacefully at home with family around him.
His passing leaves a huge hole in the hearts of Louella, his wife of 55 years, daughters Kerri (and Sheldon) Schroeder, Joelle (and Aaron) Klassen and son Andrew Friesen, as well as his grandchildren Adam and Jareth Klassen and Lacey Schroeder. He will also be lovingly missed by his siblings, in-laws, nieces and nephews. Dennis is predeceased by his parents Albert and Annie Friesen and his step-mother Elisabeth.
Dennis’ faith was the central support in his life. It guided him throughout his career as a draftsman/project manager, and in his personal life. Dennis had a lifelong passion for his horses. He also loved canoeing and fishing in Whiteshell Provincial Park. Other hobbies included painting, reading, woodworking and cheering on the grandkids at music, drama and sporting events.
The family would like to thank the Home Care and Palliative Care teams, and also Dennis’ sister Louise Friesen for her nursing care and expertise.
