Suzanne I was so sorry to hear of your loss. When I think of Fred I always remember the way he spoke of you and his family. His love was plain as well as the importance of his family in his life. You are in my prayers - Karen Brown

Dear Biesecker Family,
I only knew Fred briefly many years ago as a young DPG employee in Boyertown, but the moral and business ethics I saw displayed by Fred, Suzanne, and their children made a lasting impression on me. My learning of all the charitable endeavors of Mr. Biesecker, the devotion to the Boyertown community and other communities where DPG manufacturing plants were located, and the legacy he leaves, is truly amazing. I am grateful that I was able to pay my respects last week to a great man and a great business leader. I hope the entire Biesecker family can heal and take comfort that many admired and loved Fred.

Dear Biesecker Family; I wanted to write a few words experessing my (our) condolences for your loss. Everyone who ever met big fred loved him and his personality and his charisma and generosity. I remember the early days of Tulane and when the parents came to town we all feasted. Stephen and I, becasue of the luck of dorm room assignment were the beneficiaries of his charm. He and Susanne opened their home and their lives to all of their kids friends and family. We all will miss him very much. I look forward to catching up with everyone real soon. Once again, we are all so sorry for your loss. Seth Friedman and family and the entire west coast contingent.

Suzanne, we are so sorry for your loss. My fondest memories of Fred are of the times we ran into him at the shore. During which his granddaughters happily surrounded him and had no problem directing him towards ice cream and video games. Thinking of all of you at this time.

I will always be indebted to Mr. B for giving me my first real job after graduating from PSU. My sincere prayers go out to Suzanne, Rick, Lissa and Britta. Although it is a time of mourning, it is also a time to celebrate the life of a great man and all his amazing accomplishments in business and charitable ventures. Although it's been 11 years since I moved away, I still consider myself a member of the DPG family as they formed the business ethics and morals I still beleive in today. I always will always be thankful to Mr. B and the Biesecker family. May he rest in peace

Only God could take the place of sinners on the cross, where redemption, punishment, and love came together to change of course of the world.

Only in this course of the world could emerge America, with liberty, freedom, and justice for all.

Only in America could Fred Biesecker have been born and built Drug Plastics & Glass based on family, vision, and innovation.

Only at Drug Plastics & Glass could I have been blessed to work with my disability, in this economy, and time.

Being a part of the Drug Plastic family it broke my heart to hear of Fred's passing. He was such a great caring individual. I enjoyed when he would make his trip out to the plant and take his tours. The many conversations and sharing his pictures of his grandchildren with me warmed my heart. He truly treated each employee with great respect. I take great pride in his company because of the morals and values that stand behind it. Fred will be missed dearly but never forgotten! Prayers and thoughts go out to the Biesecker family!
