Philip Froment Obituary
It s great sadness that we said good bye to a Big Brother, Husband, Dad, Uncle, and a Friend to many. Philip Paul Froment passed away peacefully on January 20, 2022, after battling complications of a severe stroke and brain bleed.
Philip was born in Westlock, Alberta in 1937 and was the first born of Ethel and Louis Philip Froment. Philip travelled with his parents to many Northern Alberta communities as a young boy. Then travelled to Victoria /Vancouver and /Toronto while his dad was in the Navy ... After the war his family settled down in Canoe, BC where Philip finished his schooling and started a life long career as a mechanic. This career took him to many BC towns working for the Department of Highways in various departments. He travelled with his wife Sheena and son Paul residing in Revelstoke /Summit of the Rodger Pass / Victoria /Nanaimo /Prince George and settling in Kamloops, BC where he spent his retirement days golfing, bowling and skiing. Philip was a avid hockey player playing for the Salmon Arm Aces and Revelstoke Selkirk's and coaching many years in Revelstoke for their Junior Teams. Philip enjoyed travelling with his wife Sheena to Scotland /Chicago and many trips to Mexico and the West Coast. Philip was an avid volunteer for the Red Nose Society in Kamloops and enjoyed being a Marshall in the Summer games for Track and Field travelling to many different communities in BC.
Philip is predeceased by his parents Ethel and Louis Philip Froment, wife Sheena, son Paul. He is survived by his brother Norman (Barbara) Froment, sisters Paulette (Wayne) Turner; Louise (Jack) Whitney and Joanne (John) Weber. Along with many nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews that will all miss their Uncle Philip at all their family celebrations. They loved him dearly ...and as his niece Paige (Middelsteadt) says .."There will be a missing plate at all our family gatherings .. He will be missed greatly" ... Rest in Peace Philip ..may you have many sunny days golfing in Heaven
The family would like to extend their sincere thanks to the nurses and doctors at Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops and the TLC that Philip received during his short stay at the Ridgeview Manor.
Due to Provincial Health Orders the family will be holding a Private Family Service at The Revelstoke Gravesites later this summer.

Phil and Sheena were our neighbours for many many years. Very Good people. I must say that I do miss them being here. Thank You to Norm for always keeping us up to date on how things were with Phil. Part of life to leave earth. Always tough to accept. Koyne and Ruth Watson
