SIEGFRIED (FRED) EDIGER
It is with a heavy heart, we announce the passing of Siegfried (Fred) Ediger on Thursday, August 10, at the age of 97 years.
He is survived by his wife Tina Ediger (Neufeld); son Robert Ediger (wife Tracey); and grandson Tomas Ediger (fiancé Lorena Williamson).
Fred was born on February 22, 1926, in the Crimea, which was part of Russia, and later spent his childhood growing up in Zaporizhia. When the Second World War began, he and his family suffered greatly as his father, oldest brother, and twin brother were lost in the war. In 1948, Fred and his mother arrived in Canada and made his home in Winnipeg.
We would like to thank the staff at the Misericordia PCU for their help and kindness during his stay there.
A Memorial Service will be held at Friends Funeral Service on Friday, August 18, at 12:00 p.m.
