Fred DeVries Obituary
Peacefully at home, Fred DeVries passed away at the age of 77. Beloved husband of Glenda for 52 years. Fred will be dearly missed by his children Chris, (Andrea), Amanda and his granddaughters Kylie and Emily and his special dog, Griffin.
Fred was born in Joure, Friesland, Netherlands and his family moved to Canada in 1953. Fred is predeceased by his parents Ulbe (John), Tjitske (Jessie) and his brother John. He will be missed by his brother Peter (Ann), brother and sisters-in-law Linda (†Grant), Janice (†Ted), John & Jennifer, Craig & Lisa, Frank and his many nieces and nephews.
Fred’s professional life was a testament to his skill and dedication to construction; with a keen eye for detail and a tireless work ethic, he poured his heart into every project and house he built. Fred’s true calling was serving others; he devoted countless hours to mission trips compassionately helping others. In his spare time, he found rest working in the garden and spending time with family. His faith in God was foundational to his life, it gave him strength and eternal hope especially over the past few years as his health declined.
Thanks to everyone who prayed, visited and supported Fred and our family in countless ways. The family has arranged a private service. If you would like to express your condolences, please sign the tribute wall, send a card or email. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the medical clinic Fred helped build in Gambade, Haiti or to Parkinson Canada.
What we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory God will give us later – Romans 8:18
