To know Fred was to love Fred.....worked with Fred at the Board of Elections. What a great man! Also would see him around Strongsville and at the Landmark garden store. He will be missed

We were so sad to hear of Mr. Race's passing. The staff loved seeing him at the Strongsville Branch Library. We enjoyed helping him with his library requests for funny puns! He was a treasure and we will miss him dearly!

I have so many wonderful memories of my neighbor Freddy from my childhood! To name a few: Freddy teaching us to feed chickadees from our hands; his truly cringe-worthy jokes; his myriad contests with all
of his puns; most of all his ready smile, laugh and devotion to his beloved wife Betsy and children. He was one in a million and will be surely missed. May he Rest In Peace. He and his family will be in our prayers.
