Good bye Mr. Meijer. I worked for a couple of your stores in mid-Michigan, back in 1984. They were a good place to work!

Fred will always be remembered for his kindness and honesty. It was an honour to work for him and a privilege to meet him. I hope one day the company is able to find it's way back to his common sense and high morals and values. God Bless and keep you all.

Dear Meijer Family,
Fred's and Meijer's influence on my life as an interior designer was known by many close to me.
