LARRY MELVIN OSEEN, beloved husband of Pat Oseen passed away peacefully with his family by his side on Friday, October 17, 2025.

Larry was born and raised in Sundial, the third of five boys. He married Patricia McKenzie on October 12, 1957. They farmed in Sundial and the Blood Reserve until 1967. They then bought and moved to their farm north of Taber where they raised their four children.

He was athletic in his younger years playing baseball, hockey, curling and in later years golfing and skiing.

Larry loved watching his grandchildren playing their sports. He watched all six grandsons play hockey and his granddaughters in dance and rugby.

Larry and Pat travelled the world by plane, cruise ship, motorhome and Harley. Dad got his Harley license at the age of 65 and rode with Mom until the age of 82. Enjoying many miles across Canada and the U.S. with their son, family and friends.

Dad lived a full life. He worked hard and was a dedicated and successful farmer. But the most important thing to him was the love of his family, always! One of his wishes in his last few years was to take everyone to Maui, as that was one of his favorite destinations.

Dad was an amazing man, he was a good friend, kind and generous with his love and his time. He maintained his sense of humor to the end, always making us laugh with his joking manner and his funny stories of his life well lived. He leaves behind a legacy of hard work, kindness and love which will continue in all that knew him.

Larry was predeceased by his loving parents, Alfred and Ellen Oseen, brothers Harold and Dennis, nephew Shawn Oseen, mother and father-in-law Louise and Bill Mueller, and sister-in-law Skip Oseen.

He leaves behind his loving wife Pat and his four children Shelly (Don) Oseen, Kim (Toni) Oseen, Sherry (Bob) Oseen-Thompson, and Tammy (Ed) Meier. Grandchildren Evan (Kate) Oseen, Ariel (Rory) Oseen, Joel (Brenna) Oseen, Jordan (Kaho) Oseen, Amanda (Brent) Anderson, Dylan Thompson, Justin Meier, and Tyson Meier. Great-grandsons Cohen and Leo-Cruz Oseen, with a third to arrive in January 2026. Brothers Charles (Doreen) Oseen, Dean Oseen, Brother-in-Law Bryan Oseen, Sister-in-Law Donna Oseen and numerous nieces and nephews.

The family would like to extend a huge thank-you to Dr. Bridge and the staff at Fairmont Extendicare. Their care and compassion for Dad was so appreciated during the last year.

In lieu of flowers you may make donations to the Alzheimer’s Society or Alberta Cancer Foundation.

Larry will be privately remembered by his loving family.
