Frieda Buttle
July 24, 1941 - January 4, 2020
Tribute
It is with the heaviest of hearts we have to announce Frieda passed away suddenly and peacefully in her sleep Saturday.
Frieda was many things to many people: Mom, Gramma, Oma, Sister, Friend
She moved to Canada from Germany as a teenager and within 2 years was married to the love of her life Patrick Buttle, with whom she had 4 children: Mike (Linda), Susan (Pat), Jeff (Marcia), Pat (Susan), 8 grandchildren and 9 great grand children. She lived surrounded by family who loved her.
She was predeceased by many she loved and leaves behind even more.
Frieda will always be remembered for her love of family, cooking, baking and supervising the gardening.
Her home welcomed many people over the years with the smells of delicious baking always in the air. Rarely did anyone leave the house without a full bursting belly & heart full of tough love.
She was a force to be reckoned with and her wit second to none.
She was the glue of the family and will be so deeply missed.
She is in peace with Grampa and Jenny now
Service this Saturday 1pm to 4pm at Sahtlam Firehall, 4384 Old Lake Cowichan Rd.

From: Sonja (Martineau) Burton
Relation: Frieda was the best neighbour I ever had and a wonderful friend!
My deepest condolences to the family because of the passing of your wonderful Mother.
I have many special memories of your Mom when I lived on Cowichan Lake Rd. Your Mom was always so generous and welcoming to everyone who entered her home, and always with a smile! She helped me in many ways, either with my four kids, generously giving from the abundance of her garden, and many delicious meals enjoyed at her table.
I have fond memories of helping her do catering at many functions at the Sahtlam Fire Hall. She was an excellent cook and knew how to prepare for a large group. Your Dad and my husband, Ed Martineau were foundational in the building of Sahtlam Fire Fire.
Your Mom will not only be terribly missed by all of you but everyone who was fortunate to have known her and been blessed by her.
