Killian Jacob Frey

  When my brother asked me to write my nephew, Killian’s obituary, I decided to let you know who Killian Jacob Frey (my brat) really was. He was born Nov. 1, 1995 in Towanda and passed away Feb. 21, 2019. Killian was so full of life. He loved spending time with his son, Keyan Charles Frey, his family (huge family) and friends.
   His parents are his father, Neveda (Bert) Frey and his mother, Brooke (Owen) Clark. His step mother is Joyce Motts-Seeley and his step father is Travis Clark. He was so loved by his grandparents, John and Waneta Frey, and Allen and Pam Owen. He loved spending time with his brothers and sisters: Dakota (Frey) Esaias, Janel Staton, Shaun Withey, Angel Seeley, Hailey Seeley, Damien Seeley, NevedaLynn Frey and Bradley Ryan Strong. In a very short time Killian fell for a special girl, Samantha Williams.
​   Killian holds a special place in the hearts of his Uncle Cheyenne (Meleney) Frey, and, of course, me, his Aunt Sonya (Josh) Metzger and his Uncle Glen Owen and his Aunt Laney and Timmy Hickock. He loved to pick on his cousins (Siarra, Tabitha, Aubrey and Christian). Sometimes he acted just like a kid, which is who he was at heart --a big kid. Killian had so many special friends.
