Fred was a true gentleman. I was fortunate to meet and enjoy his humor as a member of the C.A.M.S car club. He will be truly missed by all his friends and family.
May the peace of the Lord be with Nancy and his family.

Nancy,
We just read about Fred's passing. What a great guy. I remember the day he accepted Christ, and what a change God made in his life. He was a great man with a tremendous sense of humor. Fred has always been a favorite memory of our ministry, and remembering his love for Alpha Romeos.
Jo Ann and I will be praying for you in these days ahead.
