Mr. Gerard Joseph Frigon

December 12, 1926 - November 19, 2017

Gerard Joseph Frigon, our most precious husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather peacefully passed away on Sunday, November 19, 2017 in Calgary, Alberta at the age of 90 years. Gerry is survived by his beloved wife of 67 years Jeanne; daughters Lorraine (Duane), Dolores (Richard) and Susan; son Guy (Judy); grandchildren Travis (Tanya), Sean, Calyn, Alyssa, Joelle and Michael; and great-grandchildren Trestan, Teigan, Rowan, Mason and Aiden. Born in Picardville, Alberta in 1926, Gerry was fourth eldest in a family of 18 children. He was one of nine brothers who learned the art of carpentry from his father Pierre. Gerry built a long and successful career in construction; and was superintendent on several important western Canadian landmarks including Gulf Canada Square and Canterra Tower in Calgary, the University of Lethbridge and the Northern Life Museum in Fort Smith, NWT. Gerry loved life and his wonderful kindness and sense of humour were treasured by many in return. His greatest joys came from spending time with family driving the countryside, enjoying camping trips, golfing, memorable family celebrations and our many get-togethers playing cards and games. A Celebration of Life honouring Gerry will be announced at a later date. To send condolences and view Gerry’s Tribute Page please visit www.lylereeves.com.
