FRED FOSTER was an outstanding person. He had THE GIFT AND FRUIT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. He was always full of JOY no matter what the circumstances. I will truly miss his HAPPY face.
I taught JANICE, KELLEY AND AMY at LINDA VISTA CATHOLIC MONTESSORI SCHOOL. He would come to Grandparent's Day and would enjoy the appetizers that the children had made. I would always make certain that he knew that the children had washed their hands before they made those snacks
I remember when Mr...

You were a respected competitor and a cherished friend.

My sincere condolensces to the family

I am so sorry to learn of your dad's passing. I have such fond memories of playing at your house, roller skating in the basement and "shopping" all the samples with Kelley !
Your dad was so gregarious and I will always remember him with a big smile on his face.

Love and hugs to your mom, Jan, Kelley, and Amy.
