IRENE FROST January 30, 1942 - October 25, 2012 It is with profound sadness that we announce the unexpected yet peaceful passing of our Mom and Oma, Irene Frost (nee Proppe) on Thursday, October 25, 2012, at the age of 70 years. Irene is survived by her daughter Diane, son Norman (Krista), grandchildren Maxwell and Grady, daughter Cindy, grandchildren Katelyn and Aaron; brother Ulrich (Margaret) Proppe; special friend Werner; and many close cousins, nieces, nephews, extended family and special friends. Irene was predeceased by her beloved husband Oswald and her parents Erich and Anni Proppe. Irene was born in Elbing, Danzig, on January 30, 1942, and immigrated to Canada in 1953. She grew up and was educated in Toronto, ON, met her husband of 47 years and moved to Winnipeg, MB in 1961. Her passion in life was to love and care for her family. She dedicated her life to raise and nurture her children, worked various office jobs and retired from MTS after 10 years to lovingly care for her grandchildren. Irene was an avid bowler, enjoyed music, dancing, walks, going to the beach and taking care of her family pets. She was the most selfless person, cared for everyone and the door was always open. Viewing will take place on Tuesday, October 30, 2012, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Thomson "In the Park" Funeral Home, 1291 McGillivray Boulevard.

Our family would like to thank the staff in SICU at Health Sciences Centre and the Victoria General Hospital for their care. In lieu flowers, if friends so desire, donations in memory of Irene may be made to a charity of ones choice. She will be dearly missed and lovingly remembered. We will miss you Mom.

  • Our family lucky enough to have met Irene and spend time with her. Irene was a graceful lady full of charm and dignity. Last Summer she came over for a bbq to our home with Cindy and the kids and we enjoyed her company very much. Irene was kind to my children and always receptive to a good yak when having a chance meeting with her be it at the store or the other Fort Garry locations that we would bump into her at. We were so sorry to hear that she had passed. Our love and prayers go out to her family The Paci Family - Posted by: Carol Paci (Friend of her daughter Cindy) on: Oct 30, 2012
