I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of my family's longtime dear friend, Fred Dreher. I wish my Dad & Mom (A.F. "Red" Marvin & Mae Marvin) were still alive to hear of this as they were great friends for many years. Fred used to come to my Dad's office building & home to play chess all the time in 60's, 70's & 80's with their friends, and Fred sold my family most of the cars they ever owned --- my mom's last car was a Buick sold to her by Fred a couple decades ago. Fred used to help my Dad take care of me when I was a toddler in the 60's while they played chess when Mom was working on Saturdays in real estate. I talked to Fred last November when Mom died to give him the sad news. He will be missed.
