It is with great sadness that I have heard of Fred´s passing.The year was 1979 when a group of us from Te Kaihanga Maori hostel went to Merivale Papanui to try out for their under 21 side .All of us ended up playing senior rugby and Fred who was the manager took us under his wing .So George Poutu,Ken Smith,JJ Te Tai ,Ernie Goodhue and myself are better people for coming under his influence and guidance. Thank you Fred

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. From Jim & Elaine Shanks

Dear Pat and Family. I am very saddened to hear of the news from our military brothers of Fred´s passing. I was privileged to serve with Fred in the NZ Army mainly in Dunedin, and after that to work with him on the Board of the Monticello Veteran´s Home & Hospital for about 16 years. Service abroad took me away from Dunedin and New Zealand, an aspect of life Fred knew only too well. Fred was one of life´s characters, ever the optimist, who had a enormous work ethic that is not often seen...

Dear Pat & family, so sorry to read that Fred had pasted away.Eddie always loved to catch up with Fred even if it was on the phone, he was a great mate .RIP Fred. Pat hold on too all the wonderful memories you shared. Sending hugs your way. Kay.
