Friedwald Karl "Fred" Barthel
August 8, 1926 - April 1, 2012
Friedwald Karl Barthel, lovingly known by friends and family as Fred was born in Gilgenburg, East Prussia in 1926. Fred had no ordinary life : from enlisting to fight in the war at the age of 17 to boarding an immigrant ship to come to Canada in 1956, these were not easy nor ordinary decisions for a young person. But he made a good life for himself, his wife Trudy whom he survived and enjoyed many happy years with his second life companion Jean Lowery. He will be very much missed by his son Peter and granddaughter Amanda , their families and Fred's dear friend Emmy Doebert.
