GREILACH _ Fred
1929 ~ 2006

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Fred Greilach of Calgary on Friday, April 21, 2006, after a brave battle with cancer at the age of 76 years. Fred was the beloved husband of Mrs. Edie Greilach of Calgary; loving father to Denise Seabrook and Tara (Ken) Nelson; grandfather to Mandy and Chad Seabrook, Blake and Kailey Nelson, and a new baby on the way. Fred was born in Mellowdale, AB on July 28, 1929. He moved and settled in Calgary at the age of eighteen years; entering into the Seismic Industry. In November of 1968, Fred and Edie were married. Fred was employed with Century Geophysical for thirty years; then joining Grant Geophysical for nine years. With years of experience behind him, he began his own geophysical company of which he retired in 2000. He will forever be remembered as a hard-working, respected member of his industry. Fred had many joys in life; he thoroughly enjoyed his retirement by golfing, curling, playing cards, gardening, and watching his favourite sports teams, the Oilers and the Eskimos. Fred especially cherished the time he spent with his grandchildren. Fred is also survived by his brothers, Carl (Ada), and Steve; sister Sue (Karl) Wahl, all of Barhead, AB, and Kay, of Calgary; and numerous nieces and nephews. Fred was predeceased by his parents; and sister-in-law Florence Greilach. Funeral Services will be held at Lutheran Church Of The Cross (10620 Elbow Drive S.W.) today, April 26, 2006 at 1:30 P.M.
