You will forever in my heart as a true gentleman and a smile that always lite up the room. Thank you for your endearing friendship. We will miss you always!!

My sympathies to Terry and the family. I have met Fred at various GWTW events over the years and always enjoyed listening to his stories. He will be greatly missed.
