I was a classmate of Fred's at Vanderbilt. He was a wonderful, warm, respected person even then, and he brought reflected honor to us all through his accomplishments after we graduated.

I am saddened at the news of Fred's death. We were classmates at Vanderbilt University where he was a campus leader. We were not close friends but I always admired his friendly manner.
