January 26, 2025

It is with sadness we announce the passing of Hilda Froese (nee DeFehr) age 96, on January 26, 2025. We are comforted in knowing she goes to meet those who went before, her parents and especially her loving husband of 32 years, David. As well as dear sisters, brother and stepdaughter Kathryn, nieces, and nephew.

She is survived by (step) son Rick (Sue) Froese, grandchildren and great grandchildren. As well, her brother Arnold (Lorna) Defehr and numerous nieces and nephews. Hilda was a woman who loved God and family. In the last years she loved to talk of memories, but also current events. Like her siblings she loved word games.

We thank the staff at Tabor Court especially Gwen and the hospital staff. A private burial was held followed by a celebration of life at the Gathering Church on Clearbrook Road on February 5, 2025.

In lieu of flowers pleas consider donating to MCC 33933 Gladys Avenue. For more information, www.woodlawnfh-abbotsford.com
