    AS YOU WELL KNOW BRADLEY HOW MUCH I LOVED FRED, WE SHARED BIRTH DATES & ALWAYS SPOKE ON THAT DAY. OUR SUMMERS AT WASAGA BEACH WAS A WONDERFUL PART OF BOTH OUR CHILDHOODS. HAVING OUR FAMILY COTTAGES ACROSS THE ROAD FROM EACH OTHER WAS SO MUCH FUN.
    ALSO MY WEEKENDS AT LEE AVE WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. I WILL MISS YOU FRED.❤️

    So sorry to hear of Fred’s passing.
    Fred was a calf roper at LoMac Stock farm.
    He is remembered by many within the equine community.
    Regards,
