I was saddened to hear of Freddie's death. I worked with your Dad for quite a long time and we had enjoyable conversations about his grandchildren, children and racing. He still had excitement in his voice about the trip to Charlotte Motor Speedway with his sons to The All-Star Race. We offer our condolences and love to the family. Denny, Sherry and Emilee Hill
