Frederick George Hahn was born on July 10, 1954, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the son of Reverend Norman and Joyce (Meiners) Hahn.
On March 21, 1975, Fred married Cheryl Lynn De Vries at the Phoenix Christian Reformed Church in Phoenix, Arizona. The couple lived in Phoenix for a while where Fred owned and operated Haan Printing. In 1978, they moved to Sioux Center, Iowa, where he began working at Dordt College (now known as Dordt University). They raised three children, Eric, Paula, and David.
Memberships throughout Fred’s life included Phoenix CRC in Phoenix, AZ, Bethel CRC, Faith CRC, and currently First CRC, all in Sioux Center, IA. Fred loved serving as a deacon and had a true heart for helping those in need. He has been a deacon in Phoenix CRC, Faith CRC, and First CRC. He served on the Outreach Committee as well as the Foundation Board. He was also heavily involved in the Siouxland Diaconal and was a student advisor for several years.
He loved playing golf, fishing, watching football games, movies, Nascar races, playing rock’n’roll, listening to a wide variety of music, watching the History Channel, and reading about current events and politics. Due to his illness with Pompeii disease, he was forced to give up many of his hobbies. But since retiring in 2019, he’s also learned to love solving mysteries and reading books about historical figures and politics.
