July 21, 1945 – November 05, 2016
at the age of 71 years
It is with great sadness that we announce the loss of our husband, father, brother and friend.
Gregory John Frey passed away at his home in Sorrento, BC at the age of 71 November 5, 2016. He was a true fighter and showed his strength, bravery and dignity until his passing.
He was predeceased by his father John Frey and his mother Bertha Frey. He will be lovingly remembered and missed by his wife Cindy; brother Chris; daughter Dana, Shane; son Curt, Tai and grandchildren Meila and Griffin; stepson James, Jess and grandchildren Cody and Thea; and stepson Jason, Amy and grandchildren Carter and Kayla; as well as numerous other close family and friends.
Greg was born July 21st, 1945 in Victoria, BC and moved to Prince George in 1950, where his love of sports, and the outdoors, thrived.
Greg spent most of his working years at CN Rail but he truly just worked to play and have fun. There is nothing he loved more in life than playing and spending time with family and friends!
After Greg retired, he and Cindy moved to Powell River in 2007 to continue the adventure and enjoy life by the ocean. In 2013 they moved to Sorrento, BC and spent winters enjoying time in Arizona.
‘Deuce’ was truly ‘Greg’arious and made many friends in whatever activity or adventure he participated in! He loved his family and friends dearly, and will be truly missed by us all.
Celebration of life to be held late spring in Prince George and will be announced at a later date.
Our condolences to you Cindy. We enjoyed having you and Greg as neighbours in Powell River, even though it was for a short time.
Wishing to extend our sympathy to Cindy and family. We only know Greg for a short time as his next door RV neighbor at Palm Creek Golf and RV resort. We know how strong he was fighting his illness and hope now he is finally resting in peace.
We are so saddened to hear of your loss Cindy. May all your precious memories ease your sorrow. Greg was one special guy. Condolences to the entire family. May his memories be eternal.
My condolences To Cindy and Family. I have some very fond memories over the year. that I had known Greg. Lots of laughs & good times. You will be missed my Friend.
