In 1966-67, I was the boy's advisor at Cascade High School and Fred was the Boys' Club president. He was a dedicated president and a fine leader.

Fred was a star athlete in his day. Starting with little league. Our dad loved going to those games. In high school he played all sports. He went to the UW. He was the first in our family to graduate college. May you rest in peace Fred.

Fred meant so much to our family throughout the years. He was one of a kind and the world will be a much bleaker place without him in it. Robi, you and the family are in our thoughts and prayers during this most difficult time and beyond.
