Fred enjoyed cooking and making sauce, barbequing with real charcoal gardening, and he especially loved sitting on his front porch talking to neighbors. His family was the most important part of his life, and Fred always put them first. He will be dearly missed by all. The family would like to thank the staff at Ideal Living Center for the wonderful care Fred received, and may god bless them all. Visitation will be held on Monday from 4 until 6pm at the THOMAS J.

Mr Booth was a wonderful neighbor. My favorite memories of him, always while walking my dogs over the years, they knew we had to stop at Mr Booths front porch, he always had a dog treat or two for them. He will be sadly missed on Mulberry Street.
