Obituary for Frieda White
It's with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Frieda Louise White of Valhalla, NY on May 1, 2022.
Born September 10, 1937, she was the daughter of the late Franz and Frieda (Mueller) Temme. Frieda graduated from White Plains High School in 1955.
In November 1960, Frieda married Roland White, whom she met while working at IBEW Local 501 in White Plains. Together, they raised two children and lived their love story for 61 years.
Frieda enjoyed needlework, puzzles, and watched movies of a wide variety from classic Disney to crime dramas. But above all, she enjoyed all of these activities in the presence of those she loved most. Many afternoons were spent snuggled on the couch watching Disney musicals and ‘I Love Lucy’ reruns with her granddaughters when their homework was done (mostly). Frieda also had a sweet tooth and could always be counted on to bring everyone’s favorite treat for any holiday or special occasion.
In their retirement, Frieda and Roland enjoyed traveling with friends and family, cruising to Alaska and Bermuda and vacationing in the Bahamas and Las Vegas, but she especially enjoyed the annual beach vacations with the whole family.
Frieda is survived by her husband Roland, her two children, Cheryl Mattiace (Chris) of Leland, North Carolina and Steven White (Melinda) of Armonk, NY, and her two granddaughters, Christina White of New York City and Alyssa Carthy (Terence) of Armonk, NY.
The family will receive friends from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. today, Wednesday, May 4, 2022 at Beecher Flooks Funeral Home, 418 Bedford Rd, Pleasantville, New York.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, May 5 at Holy Innocents R.C. Church at 431 Bedford Road, Pleasantville, NY 10570.
