Not sure what to say?

I didn't meet Fred until he was in his 80s. I was only a teenager then, but it's funny how a young girl and an 80 year old man could become fast friends! There are few people like Fred, he was a class act and inspired me to get into law. Some people in life are just extra special, and he will be fondly remembered.

We have fond memories of Fred going back to 1977. His Christmas kickoff parties just got the festive season going nicely. We're all better for having known him.

Mr.Ehrich, Through the years as my families lawyer you showed much compassion and kindness. I always remember my Dad saying "he was a regular guy, not afraid to roll up his sleeves and get his hands dirty. I have heard many tales about the way you gave of yourself to help those in need, not to mention that you were a great lawyer. May you rest in Peace. Gale Wisher

I worked with Fred on the James Harrington case and another car case. Fred was a true professional and also worked as a member of the Mt. Anthony school district. where I had to negotiate with him. I really respected his manner. A well liked man.

To The family of Mr. Ehrich
I will always call his Mr from the days I attended North Bennington High School and he was doiing some, I think, substitute teaching there. It was before Jume of 1949 when I graduated. I knew him all the years after that and missed him when he went to Manchester. Such a nice man and a great sense of humor, for sure. He will be missed.
