Fred is survived by his loving wife of 48 years, Helen and their 5 children, Susan (Michel Gregoire), Carol (Bob Legge), Ray (Janice) Anderson, Neil (Lisa) Anderson and Laura (Dave Zimmerman). He will be sadly missed by his 14 grandchildren, Emilie, Lea and Isabelle Anderson-Gregoire, Dan, Marni, Jillian and Kevin Legge, Jennifer and Kyle Anderson, Josh, Lindsay and Julia Anderson, and Keiran and Ayla Zimmerman. His sister Avis (Stanley) McPherson also survives him. He was pre-deceased by his parents Ray and Dorothea Anderson. Fred attended Kelvin High School and went on to the U of M where he received his Chartered Accountant's Degree in 1957. He joined the Manitoba Health Services Commission in 1960, where he held many positions, retiring as the Assistant Deputy Minister of Finance for Health in 1993. Fred volunteered on numerous boards including the Canadian Blood Committee, the Deer Lodge Centre Foundation and the Winnipeg RH Institute Foundation. Fred was devoted to his beloved wife Helen, whom he met 53 years ago, and rarely left her side. He was a gentleman and a gentle man who loved his family most of all. Fred was involved for many years at the Crestview Community Club, serving on the original Building Committee, as coordinator of the Family Fun Days and coaching his sons' hockey and daughters' softball teams. Fred was an avid duck hunter and fisherman in his youth., and he maintained a love of wildlife and nature. He also loved to play cards with friends and family, excelling at Contract Bridge. Fred was a man of great integrity, honesty and kindness, which was observed whether it be at the card table or the family dinner table. As the consummate host, he always made sure the comfort of family, neighbours and friends was looked after. Fred's greatest joy came from either hosting friends at his cabin or knowing his cabin was being enjoyed by his childrens' friends. Despite the past few years of health challenges, Fred maintained his dignity and tremendous grace. His final week found him hosting friends at his beloved cottage. Although he could no longer captain his boat, he once again provided friends with a beautiful summer week. A celebration of Fred's life will take place Friday, July 23 at 1:30 p.m. in Westwood Community Church, 401 Westwood Dr. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Canadian Diabetes Association, or a charity of one's choice.

Ashern - Lundar 1 - 204 - 768 - 2072 LUCIEN CHAMPAGNE July 21, 2004 LUCIEN MARK JOSEPH CHAMPAGNE Lucien Champagne, aged 78, died at Ste. Anne Hospital on July 19, 2004, following a courageous battle with cancer and heart trauma. Lucien was born April 20, 1926, in the town of Richer MB. He served in the Royal Canadian Armed Forces. He later worked for Kleysen's Transport, Barnes Security and Seine River School Division. Lucien loved sports. He not only played but he coached and was an official umpire of the Manitoba Baseball Association. He was affectionately called "Uncle Lou" by players and fans. He was fondly remembered for his distinct "You'rrr outta of here", during games all around Manitoba. Lucien will also be remembered for his love of music. He played guitar and sang at many social events and enjoyed family gatherings. Lucien was a member of the Royal Canadian Legion where he served as President and Vice President for many terms. Lucien is survived by his devoted wife, of twelve years, and best friend Louise; her five children, Annette, (Randy), Nancy (Pete), Ed (Theresa), Roger (Sherri), Diane (Rob); and his eight children, Lucy Saindon, (Jean-Louis), Gary Champagne (Gail), Micheal Champagne (Tanya), Ronald Champagne, Paul Champagne (Linda), Paulette Champagne (Donald), Susan Champagne Shapiro (Butch), and Mark Champagne (Maura). Lucien is also survived by his only brother Paul Champagne (Tommie); and numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. Lucien loved animals, and leaves behind his loving canine companions, Bear and Dollie. Peacefully he will rejoin with "Lucky" . . . Just this side of Heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge When an animal dies that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills and our friends are comfortable. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. But, the day comes when one (Lucky) suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers . Suddenly he (Lucky) begins to run, his legs carrying him faster and faster. You (Lucien) have been spotted, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. As Lucien requested, a private service and cremation will be held, followed by interment in the Green Acres Memorial Gardens . A memorial fund has been established with the Winnipeg Humane Society. Thanks to the Department of Veteran's Affair and all the staff at the Ste. Anne Hospital for their help and support. To my darling Father . . .
