Dear Cheyenne and Schaefer family,
I´m so sorry for your loss.
I remember meeting Fred/Opa in 2014 at the Public Library where he came every Wednesday with his beloved granddaughter. He was always so positive, polite and kind. He started giving me advice about investing and even brought me some articles. I still think about his advice, "always pick the top companies and Canadian banks are great!" Fred was a very special library patron who I will remember forever.
Rest in peace, Fred.
