Nakata, I'm sorry for the loss of a Good Man, a Good Father and a Good Friend and I'm sure a Good husband to you and your family. I had known Fred for many years. He never changed in his personality and friendship. He was a Great person to have known and for his path to cross mine.
You and the kids are in my prayers. Blessings To You and Family,

Nakata, I don't think you realize what a blessing it was when we met at DFCS so many years ago. Not only was I blessed with your friendship, but you blessed me with the friendship of Fred. I will continue to keep you, Niles and Leigh in my prayers and hold on to the fond memories of Fred for the rest of my days. His laughter was infectious, his love for you guys was unwavering and boundless. That love will carry on. God Bless you.
