July 27, 1939 – December 02, 2023
It is with sadness that we announce the passing of our Father, Grandfather, and Great Grandfather, Larry Weber on December 02, 2023, at the age of 84.
Larry is survived by his children Wade (Gale), Wendy Fraser (Clem), Robin Weber and mother of his children Yvonne Weber. His grandchildren Amanda Dubois (Michael), Ashley Weber (Darryl Merritt), Jocelyn Fraser, Mathew Fraser (Sydney Fehr), Jade Levacque, and his great grandson Deacon Dubois….(so big…). He is pre-deceased by his father Clarence.
Larry was born and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba. He spent most of his career at Honeywell. He then moved to J. Hansen and Son and then finally ABCO. When he retired, he moved to the small town of Gimli, Manitoba and stayed busy with various small jobs. He especially loved cutting grass for all his neighbors around Loni Beach and doing small handyman work.
A few of Larry’s favorite past times were photography, music, bowling, dancing, shooting pool and golfing. Larry enjoyed a good round of golf at Gimli Golf Course among all other courses in the Interlake. At any function, if there was a Polka or Jive, you would see him on the dance floor. Let’s not forget him always skunking you at cribbage. Larry was so proud of his cottage in Gimli that he made it his retirement home, where he met and enjoyed spending time with his friends John, Ken, Cam and Helen. Larry had a loud personality, and you always knew when he was in the room. He was the life of any party. Growing up you could not ask for a better father. He was always involved in our activities and only had to ask once.
Larry will be missed by all associated with him.
We would like to thank all the Doctors and Nurses of Gimli General Hospital for taking care of Dad during his many visits. We would also like to thank the nurses and aids at the Betel Home Foundation for caring for dad in his final months.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Evergreen Basic Needs in Gimli, Manitoba.
As per Larry’s wishes cremation has taken place. There will be no service, but please honor dad by having a beer in his memory.
