Harms, Fred 

Harms, Fred 

With great sadness we would like to give respects to our most dear husband, father and grandfather, Fred Harms.

Born in Medicine Hat in Alberta on January 30th, 1941 to Mary and Elmer Harms. He was their first child and had a brother Gerry.

He passed away on February 23, 2024 at the Foothills Hospital due to a stroke at the age of 83.

His journey of farming started early as he quit school and started farming with his dad in Manyberries, Alberta, before moving in 1960 to a farm in the Hussar area. He married the love of his live, Gay Millman soon after in 1967 in Calgary, they were married for a wonderful 56 years. His children Shane (Deanna) and Charlene (Shawn) as well as his grandchildren Zac, Ethan, Mikayla, Mathen and Brynn will all truly miss his wit and many stories.

He had a penchant for farming and loved every aspect of it, his favourite days were always ones that he spent repairing and fixing any and all sorts of machinery.

He was an active member of Our Saviours Lutheran Church and Hussar Seniors Centre and enjoyed the many get togethers with the community.

All who wish to make a donation in honour of Fred can contribute to STARS Air Ambulance or Our Saviours Lutheran Church.

So many thanks for all your well wishes, they are greatly appreciated at this time.

The family will be having a funeral on March 2nd at 2pm at the Lord of all Lutheran in Strathmore, AB.
