FREDERIC PIKE Obituary

PIKE, Frederic At the age of 86, of Framingham, passed away on Tuesday, September 29, 2020. He was the adored husband of Joanne (Goren) Pike. He was the son of the late Minnie (Haloon) & David Pike. Loving father to Nancy Hunt & her husband Stephen of Framingham, Shelby Burnham & her husband Jason of Framingham, and Marcy Blocker & her husband Jeff of Natick. He was "Pop-Pop" to Mia and Adam Blocker, Max and Ben Hunt. Dear brother of Burton Pike and Alan Pike. Fred grew up in Chelsea and Winthrop and was a proud Veteran of the US Army having served in the Korean War. Upon leaving the Army, Fred put himself through Law School at BU. He practiced law in Boston and Brookline before eventually becoming a Broker at Coldwell Banker for the past 30+ years. Fred was an avid Boston sports fan who was fortunate to witness several Boston Championships. He was the most amazing storyteller, captivating everyone with his outrageous "true stories" and his contagious laugh. Fred had a green thumb and loved his garden. Whatever he touched, bloomed. His greatest accomplishment are his girls, Nancy, Shelby, and Marcy who will carry on his legacy. His bride of 50 years, Joanne, will always be the love of his life.

Dear Joanne & family,
I am so saddened to hear about the passing of Fred. He was a loyal client of mine for 6 years, I cut his hair. From the moment I met him, I always looked forward to seeing him in my chair. He always talked about his beautiful girls & wife and shared fond memories & stories with me. He loved his family very much. Fred will forever be in my heart, he treated me like one of his own daughters. He always gave me the best advice & life lessons. Fred will be greatly missed at the salon. Thank you very much for letting me know, that meant so much to me. Sending lots of love to the family during this difficult time. ❤❤❤

Fred was the godfather to my son Matt, and family more than friends. We shared dinners, special events, and connections with all of their children. He was a caring person, an excellent lawyer with empathy to his clients. Later on as a real estate broker he was conscientious, and went up and beyond just showing the property. He loved his plantings, and we often sat at the pool. He was a wonderful father to Marcy, Nancy, and Shelby. David and I will miss him. Love, The Stillman Family

I am Freddie’s cousin.
I cannot express my feelings adequately.
From the time I was just a child I respected, looked up to and loved my older cousin Freddie.
Freddie was exactly 10 years older than me, as we both had the same birthday. Every year I would call him to wish him a happy birthday.
From time-to-time I would call him to “say hello”, and maybe get some advice.
We would always agree to “get together”, but never got around to it.
Even though we did not see each other — I will miss him.
I hope that your family can find some comfort in the fact that he certainly was a wonderful, loving person.

Dear Joann and family. My heart goes out to you and my heartfelt condolences. Fred was a wonderful caring and humorous man. We spent many humorous times and I truly enjoyed spending time with both of you. Unfortunately wish I had spent more moments. I will always remember Fred, he is not forgotten. Love you all and please be well.

Every time I met or spoke to Fred, his personality lit up the room. He always had a lilt in his voice that would make you smile. Fred was a mensch.

Fred and Joanne were a great couple. They kidded each other, enjoyed each other and from what I saw, were very much in love for the 50 years they were married.

Remembering him will provide us fond memories and a smile every once in a while. we are the richer for having met him.

May his memory be a blessing for all who knew him.
