In Memory Of

Fred J. Bjorgum, Age 88, of Butte

October 10, 1931 – September 5, 2020

In loving memory of Fred John Bjorgum –

On September 5, 2020, I lost my beloved husband of 66 years, and our daughter, Teresa lost her dad.

Fred was born Oct. 10, 1931, to Harold and Angeline (LaMoot) Bjorgum.

Fred worked for Stauffer Chemical for 43 years, retiring May of 1995.

We traveled some, and spent a lot of time at our cabin at Georgetown Lake with our kids and grandkids.

In addition to his parents, Fred was preceded in death by his son, Christopher; sisters, Charlotte Gilbert and Doris Miller, and brother, Harold, all of Butte; and nephew Micky, of Butte.

Survivors are wife, Adell; daughter, Teresa; grandsons, Fred (Mellisa) Bjorgum, Chris (Carli) Bjorgum, and Adrienne Bjorgum of Missouri; daughter-in-law, Lena; great-grandchildren, Erick and Zack, Bo and Berlene Bjorgum; nephews, Bob and Bill Gilbert; and niece, Colleen (Chris) Keller of California.

Memorials in honor of Fred are suggested to St. Jude Hospital or Humane Society (also known as Chelsea Bailey Animal Shelter in Butte).

Wait for me, Honey, on the other side.

    Our condolences to Adell, Teresa and the whole Bjorgum family. Fred was a terrific upstanding man. We grew up in the same neighborhood with the Bjorgum’s and they were great neighbors. He watched over all the kids in the neighborhood and would point us in the right direction when needed. He always had a smile and good word for everyone. He lead a good life. RIP Fred.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

    Adell (Georgia to me) and Teresa, I’m so very sorry for your loss. Fred was a great guy and the friendship that our family had with yours for so many years was much appreciated. My thoughts are with you.
