    My condolences to Kelly, Caleigh, and Fred’s surrounding family. Fred was always a good soul, willing to help where needed, a good listener, and one who enjoyed a good laugh. I will miss our conversations. We shared a mutual interest in photography. He loved taking photos. The service was lovely and I’m glad that it was available thru a live-stream for those that couldn’t attend in-person. I’m so glad I had some time to spend with you in your final days. Fred; my friend; brother; you will be missed. Isaiah 40:31.
