Frederick B. Dent

Having a conversation today about NAFTA made me think of my childhood at Arcadia. I discovered Mr Dent had passed and wanted to send my belated condolences. My parents GE and Carolyn
and grandparents Guy and Gladys Miller all worked in the mills. I have fond memories and while I didn't have a personal relationship with Mr. Dent do remember him well. I guess he followed in his father's footsteps because word in Arcadia was that, prior to becoming management, he had his son work in all...

Great man. One of the nicest I ever met.

I've never known a finer man. He was both distinguished and brave. He served his community and the nation in an exemplary way.I feel very fortunate to have known both him and his family.He will be missed by many.

Several years ago, Mr. Dent presented me a certificate for a course that I had completed in Educators in Industry. I have a lot of respect for Mr. Dent. He impressed me greatly. My condolences to his family. Fred, RIP for a job well done.

My father, Winford Brock, spent many happy years in the employ of Mayfair Mills in Arcadia. He respected and enjoyed his relationships with both Fred, Sr. and Fred,Jr.
On the day he died of a massive heart attack, he was exercising at the YMCA with Fred, Jr. We lost him much too early, but my brother Bob and I have happy memories of
Our days in Arcadia and Mayfair Mills. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all in the loss of your father/grandfather.

My sincerest sympathies and prayers for comfort to the family of a great and kind gentleman.
