Words can not express the loss I know you must be feeling. You all were as close as family and mean more to me than some of those.My memories are full of the many wonderful times we all had together. From too many church funtions to mention, the trips to Florida, camping, the wonderful meals, annual Christmas dinner at your house, sitting on the back porch comtemplating the world and the future. Fred was one of my heros. He stood on his principles and lived his life following them. We can realize some solace in that he is now with my Mom and Dad now. I wonder if they are eating peaches or chicken and dumplings? You are in our prayers and thoughts at this time of sorrow.

I will always remember Fred as a person who always had a smile on his face and saw the best in people, regardless of their circumstances. I always looked forward to seeing him as he always brightened my day. He will be warmly remembered and greatly missed.
