Not sure what to say?

I was a class mate of Fred at Clifton high school In thinking about people I grew up with ,liked and were like able I had not heard from or about for many years I googled his name I am pleased that he lived such a rich active and interesting life and hope that you his children and grandchildren carry warm memories as I do Mike feltman

Please accept this expression of sympathy. I was a classmate of Fred's at Rutgers-Newark ~ he was one year ahead of me. We were in several Poli-Sci classes together & often rode the same bus to Newark. As I recall, he was Air Force ROTC ~ came to class in uniform. I lost track of him after he graduated & often wondered what his life was like after that. I'm impressed that he achieved so much. Best wishes & blessings to his family.

Hello Ofsowitz family. I was a friend and co-worker of Fred's
at Amarillo Tower for several years. He was an honest man, a dedicated employee, and a good friend. We lost contact after I left Amarillo Tower in 1997. I just did a web search for Fred as I was thinking of him, and was saddened to see his obituary. Like all of you, I miss Fred, but find comfort in knowing that he is now with his wife and other family members who preceded him in death.

Fred was a good friend in high school and college, and we reconnected about 15 years ago. His family was everything to him. He carried the loss of his beloved wife with him always but found joy and satisfaction in his daughters, in whom he saw Joanne. And he was the happiest and proudest grandpa ever. Thank you, Jennifer and Megan, for taking care of your dad.

I knew he was a forever devoted husband and superhero dad to his two girls, but I am now moved by the distinguished life he lived, accomplishments he made, after reading the obituary. No wonder his daughters are such a strong testament to his legacy. And I know that he would say his biggest accomplishments were his family, his girls, and grandkids. I am so sorry for the huge void he has left. Jennifer, you continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Our condolences to Freddie's children, grandchildren and siblings. He will be remembered as a selfless, kind man with a quick wit. May he RIP. The Cimmet Family, Belleville, NJ

I so enjoyed working with Fred at the VA in Amarillo. He was a devoted volunteer drive who did a fabulous job rain or shine , early morning hours air late nights, getting Veterans to and from their health appointments. He was an advocate for Veterans and a reliable , capable volunteer that everyone wanted in their department. I know he is with Joann now in the arms of Jesus. His grandchildren have a wonderful example of dedication, patriotism and model American hero. Well done, good and...

Sending my deepest sympathies for a terrible loss. May he rest in peace.
