Frank Dyck died Nov. 2,

2008. Frank's mother died

one month after he and

his twin brother, Jake, were

born, leaving their father

to raise 11 children. Frank

married Alfrieda Voth

Sept. 14, 1957, and they spent the next 33 years

farming and raising their family. In 1990, they

moved to Morden, Man., farming from town for

the next 14 years. Frank served his church and

community, singing in choirs, teaching Sunday

school, participating in youth work, deacon work,

church council, seniors ministry, Bi ble studies, and

men's prayer breakfasts. Frank loved anything that

involved the Lord and people. He will be remem-

bered for his powerful handshake, a smile that lit

up the room , and a firm belief that whoever he

met should know about Jesus. Predeceased by 5

brothers and 1 sister, Frank is mourned by Alfrieda ;

children Larry (Valerie), Merley (Ken) Wiebe, Gerald

(Rachel), Cheryl (Carl Duerksen); 12 grandchildren;

4 siblings. The celebration of life was Nov. 7 at

Westside Community Church, Morden .
