I was sad to have heard that Freddie passed away a few years back. Freddie was a best friend and band mate back in high school. We grew up together, and formed a garage band for 4 years. Good memories of hanging out at the tennis courts all summer long. It brings a smile with a heavy heart. Rest in peace Freddie.

I will miss my uncle, he was 3yrs older than me.

Fred was a good friend and a good guy. Through decades of knowing him I never knew him to do a mean-spirited thing to anyone nor leave a friend in the lurch. Freddy would never abandon anyone or treat a friendship lightly; all in all he was truly an upright man. I'm sad to hear that he has gone from us. You fought the good fight, my brother, and you did your best not to let it get you down.

Freddy, was the best friend an on stage musican could have. He worked the boards like an experienced surgeon, conjuring his best expertise so that area artist could sound as professional as possibile.Most impotantly he was a good man, who gave his heart and soul to those he loved. Until we meet again; rest well hermano.

I have so many fond memories of when Fred worked at Taps Sports Bar! He always put a smile on my face when he would come to work. Always a great personality and good listener. He tried very hard to please everyone and I will remember the fun we had when we would all go out to party together!! Fun times and GOD has a special angel now to fill heaven with great music!! Filipe is a special lady that I also got to know thru Fred! Will pray for all his family and their time of grief. God...

Rudy, so sorry for your loss. Hope you remember me.
