PEARCE, Frederick John Albert - 87 years ago, Frederick John Albert Pearce was born in his parents' home in Toronto, Ontario, in the summer of '32, the eldest of six children to William and Ivy Pearce.
Early in his twenties, Fred was swept off his feet by Ingrid and took her to a dance; their dance lasted his lifetime.
Fred spent his adult working life in the financial side of the car business working for car dealerships in Toronto and Hamilton with Ford and General Motors.
After a long battle with cancer, Fred leaves behind the love of his life Ingrid Patricia, wife of 64 years, his son David and wife Kaaren, grandson Kristian and granddaughter Jessica.
Predeceased by his parents, brother Jim and sister-in- law Carol Pearce, Fred also leaves his siblings, Dorothy (Eric) Taylor, Marilyn (Ross) Walsh, Dennis (Barb) Pearce, Larry (Jamie) Pearce, as well as many nieces and nephews.
The family would like to thank the gracious and caring, compassionate, professional people who have supported and cared for Fred and Ingrid through this difficult journey; Cancer Care Manitoba, Palliative Home Care, Riverview Health Care Centre, 3rd floor, and Grace Hospice.
You are all such special people; thank you so much for your care and love.
Celebration of Fred's life will take place in Ontario later next year.
In Lieu of flowers please donate to Cancer Care Manitoba or a charity of your choice
