Dear Aunt Betna, Karin & Bryan, Fred T. and Judy,

I so wish I could be with you for Uncle Fred's service, however, time and money will prevent me from making it there at this time. All my thoughts and prayers are with you, and my deepest sympathy too. Uncle Fred was a big part of my early years, always there helping to make every holiday and vacation with my dearest family more fun and happy. He was a shining example of what it meant to be one of the "greatest generation." He will certainly be missed by us all. Much love to you, Debbie

Fred,
My condolences to you and your family on the loss of your Dad. I appreciate you sharing "Clipped Wings" with me as it allowed me to obtain a connection with your Dad even though I never met him. May God Bless you and your Family.

Aunt Betty, My thoughts and love are with you at this time. Bruce and I talk about how wonderful you and Uncle Fred were to mom. Thank you. You always seem to make me feel so special when I came to visit. Uncle Fred was a very loving man. He seemed to be so peaceful in what ever he did. Much love to you all. Carolyn

Aunt Bing, Fred and Karen- We are thinking of you and wanted you to know how special we thought Uncle Fred was. His good humor, warmth, heroism and life's motto (know everything about something and something about everything) will always be fondly recalled by us. His was a life well-lived and one to be emulated, and we celebrate the fact he was such a part of our lives. Blessings on you all.
Love, Boyd and Bonnie

For a short time in the mid 60's I worked for Fred at Bendix in the Sales Department. He was one of my favorite bosses.

My sincere sympathy to the family.

I have many, many memories of Mr. Loomis and his wife and family. As a close friend of his daughter Karin in the 50's and 60's,I always looked up to both him and his wife and considered them role models. They were always involved in community, in their church, and in their family.
I am sorry that he is gone, but know that he was not the kind of man who would compromise his integrity in any way.
My best wishes to his wife, Bette, son Fred and daughter Karin.
