Not sure what to say?

Just now found out that Cousin Fred had passed and am so sorry. Have lovely memories of his and Alan's visits to our grandparents in Fulton. The world has lost two great, kind guys both very much loved and admired by their little girl cousins there. My heartfelt condolences to you, Nancy, and Fred's children. So sorry this is so delayed. I simply didn't find out sooner.

I was fortunate to get to know Fred for the short time I worked at Clark Lindsey. He had a twinkle in his eye and good humor. What a pleasure to read about all his accomplishments. What wonderful service he gave to the world. Condolences to Nancy and the whole family. Linda, I am in Corvallis.
