After a brave battle with a brief illness, it is with heavy hearts that
the family of Manfred “Fred” Petrich announce his peaceful
passing on November 19, 2023.
Predeceased by his parents, Edmund and Alma, Fred is survived
by his loving sons: Ryan (Renee), and Drew (Katie); brother:
Werner/Pepe; nephews Robert and Michael, and countless
friends.
Fred was born in Germany, arriving to Canada with his family not
long after that. Once here, he excelled in school and developed a
knack for hockey. Hockey would remain a lifelong passion, hobby,
and – oft – reason to make “comments” at the television. Later in
life, his focus turned to golf. During the spring, summer, and
fall, Fred could be found spending many leisurely hours at various
golf tournaments and more specifically, the Oshawa Golf and
Curling Club where he remained a passionate and dedicated
member.
Fred graduated from the University of Toronto in 1976, ultimately
becoming a licensed Ontario Land Surveyor, a designation that
was complemented by his entrepreneurial spirit. Throughout his
life, Fred built, developed, and purchased a number of
businesses. He expertly balanced being outdoors, managing his
businesses, and pursuing his passions over the course of his
lifelong career.
However happy Fred was at the business, he was happiest
spending time up at his cottage in Haliburton. If he was missing,
he could likely be found dropping a line in the lake, attempting
poorly considered cottage renovations on his own, and enjoying a
beer on the dock. We will miss seeing his smiling face by the
campfire on cool evenings, celebrating a job well done.
Imparting his love for the outdoors, hockey, music and hard work
on his children, his family will honour his legacy by cultivating
those passions in much the same ways.
The family would like to thank the physicians, nurses, and staff on
the Medicine/Nephrology and Palliative floors at Lakeridge Health
Oshawa for caring so diligently for Fred in his final days. Thank
you- from the bottom of our hearts – for keeping him safe and
comfortable, and ensuring that he passed with dignity.
Fred’s sons will be hosting a celebration of life on November 29,
2023 between 1-4pm at the Oshawa Golf and Curling Club. All
are welcome to come, share stories and toast a life well lived.
In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that you please consider
supporting being an organ donor. For more information, please
