Fred Allen Bickford III

My sincere condolences to the Bickford family, I was very sorry to hear of your loss. As you know, I lost my dad a few months ago. But with the strength of my family, friends, and my memories of the great times I had with him, I have survived. And I know you all will keep those individual moments you had with him to get by. I wish I could have been there for you, but unfortunately I had to bury a friend and will be unable to attend. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Joe

Everyone, I am so, so sorry to hear of Mr. Bickford's death. To Kaye, to you and your family, my tears and sympathies go out to you. I heard the message late from Jodie. I can't believe it. I still smile when I remember him. I quote Mr. B and talk of him to my friends here. What a guy! What a devoted father! What a man! They just don't make them like that anymore. My best to you all. I wish I could be there with you. Lana

Fred's loss came as a great shock. I have fond memories of you all at our house in Helotes, Texas the day following Jane and Mary Ann's graduation from Trinity University. Fred so enjoyed the barbeque. That was nice day for all of us.

My sincere condolences to you, Mrs. Bickford, and the entire Bickford family. I was very sorry to hear of Fred's sudden passing and I will always remember him well. Everytime I see the Marine Corps flag I will think of him, he was so proud of his service. He has a great sense of humor. Semper Fi Fred, I will miss you. -Mike

Dear bereaved Family,
We are sorry to hear about the death of your loved one, Fred Bickford III. Oh, how we look forward to the day when "death will be no more, neither mourning, nor sorry nor outcry of pain be anymore, because the former things have passed away." We express our deepest condolences.

To the Bickford family: our thoughts and prayers are with you all - Kay, Jane, Sarah, Fred, Faith and your family, the grandchildren and extended families. Please know that I would be there if I could. I will be thinking of you all this week. I know that Fred lived a good life and was loved by many. It was always wonderful to come to Braintree when I was in Boston on business or to visit Jane.
Love, Jodie Zoeller (and Chuck Bloom)

My thoughts and prayers are with Kay, Jane, Sarah, Faith, Fred IV, and the grandchildren as well as extended family. I wish I could be there with you.
Love, Jodie

Kay,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss.
It has been many years since I have seen you and Fred but I do remember staying at your house back in the early 60's before going to Logan airport the next day. One time Fred even gave us a motorcycle escort; he led us to the airport. That was quite exciting to us back then and we always remembered it.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.
With Deepest Sympathy,
Gail and Dick Keene
