I'm so sorry for your loss Jeanne. Fred was a true friend and will be remembered forever for his kindness and generosity for everyone. Fred will always be remembered as the customized van man . I will miss hearing his old stories from working for Pontiac motor division .
Jeanne,
Sharing in your sadness and sending healing prayers and comforting hugs.
My deepest sympathy to you and your family, as we remember Fred. I love you.

Grade and High Schooled with Fred. He and I did some odd things in our younger days, with many a laugh the result. God rest your soul, Fred.
Our Love & Prayers Jeanne, He will be missed.
However, we all now have another One to listen to us, from on High, One with a little pull for us.
Best neighbor ever, we will always miss our good friend and good neighbor. We thought Fred would be coming home from the hospital again but this time we weren’t that lucky. The neighborhood just won’t be the same without Fred. Jeanne and Fred always had time to stop and talk for a few minutes when ever they came by and always a honk of the horn for their friends. We are so sad for Jeanne and anyone else who knew Fred because he was a very good man and if you were his friend you knew that he valued that friendship. I hope there is a 1986 Chevrolet short bed pick up truck in heaven for Fred to work on because he enjoyed doing that and I was honored to help him with it from time to time. Rest in peace Fred.
Jeanne, I am so sorry, I will miss him so much. A good friend, a good card player, and we loved to find a good fish place to eat. You are in my thoughts and prayers for all the family. Love you
Dear Jeanne, So sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you. With love and deepest sympathy, ~Diane
