Fredrick MATER Obituary
MATER, Fredrick William
January 11, 1940 - September 28, 2023
With sad hearts we announce the passing of Fred Mater. Fred grew up in Lake Cowichan and moved over to Vancouver, eventually settling in Tsawwassen to raise his family with his wife Sharon. Fred was active in the community coaching several sports teams as well as running a small business. Fred and Sharon relocated back to Vancouver Island for several years but ultimately returned to Tsawwassen where they enjoyed life long friends, grandkids, golf and watching sports. Fred was an avid reader who loved to discuss politics, current events, speak Spanish, enjoy scotch and take as many road trips as he could.
We would like to extend our gratitude to all of the staff at both Delta and Surrey Memorial Hospital for all of their dedication, care, and little jokes they shared with Fred over the last few months.
Fred will be lovingly remembered and
missed by his family and friends.
A celebration of life will be held at the
Tsawwassen Springs Golf Course
(5133 Springs Blvd, Tsawwassen)
on October 22, 2023 from 12:30 to 3:30pm.

Fred and I worked together a Diversey. My wife and I just moved to the Island and I was hoping to touch bases. So sorry to have missed him, we had so much fun working together. Greg
