FREDERICK CHARLES DAVID
August 15, 1926 – May 5, 2017
Fred passed away peacefully in the early morning of May 5, 2017 at Red River Place, Selkirk, MB. His loving wife of 70 years, Ingrid, and family were by his side.
He was born and lived all of his life in Victoria Beach until their move to Selkirk in 2013. Fred and Ingrid were married in 1946 and raised four children, Garry, Lynne (Allan), Eric, Perry (Shannon); eight grandchildren, George (Shauna), Heather, Allan, Raymond (Rosa), Amanda (David), Dylan (Breanne), Erica and Sophie; four great-grandchildren, Sydney, Allan, Justine, Holly and many cousins, nieces and nephews. Fred was predeceased by his parents Charles and Sophie, brothers, Raymond and Leonard, Eric’s wife Salome, Shannon’s son Dustin and Heather’s fiancé Mark.
He joined the army at age seventeen and was stationed in Shilo and was an expert marksman, but the war ended before he was to be deployed. Fred was a commercial fisherman on Lake Winnipeg for 67 years. He also owned and operated Pine Road Fur Farm of which he won many awards for his quality mink. He was an avid sportsman participating in baseball, hockey, golf, curling, trap shooting, hunting and water sports. He played hockey until he was 73 years old with the Pine Falls Old Timers and made many lifelong friends. He was a trick water skier and won the Provincial Championship in 1954.
Fred was a loving and devoted husband and a kind and generous father and grandfather. He was truly, a wonderful role model for our family.
Funeral services will be held at the St. Michael’s Church in Victoria Beach on Friday, May 12, 2017 at 11:00 a.m. with Archdeacon Godfrey Mawejje officiating. Interment will be held at the Victoria Beach Cemetery with lunch to follow at the Victoria Beach Senior Scene (3 Ateah Rd).
His pallbearers will be Eric, Perry, Dylan and Raymond David and George and Allan Dyker.
The family would like to thank the staff at Red River Place in Selkirk for their compassion and care.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to St. Michael’s Church or a charity of one’s choice.
