Our sincere condolences to Freds' daughters and their families. As a shipmate and friend, since Oct of 1943, we know he will be sorely missed. (That's 70 years ago)! We know he is again home and happy with Bea; we loved them both. God Bless you both, old friend and shipmate.

I remember Freddie as one of my FF1 instructors back in 1989 at Hunterdon County Emergency Services Training Center.

Both he and Charlie Wright inspired me to become an instructor in Hunterdon. My prayers are with his beloved family.

I knew Fred from firefighting, he was my instructor. It has been years gone bye, but Fred always remembered me when he saw me...an honor to say I knew Fred. The man served his family, God, and country well...God bless.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
