Although I have not seen Fred for many many years I will always remember his mentorship when I joined the Glendale Police Department in 1964. We actually had a bachelor pad with two other officers for a short time. Fred was the "resident chef" for us that were lousy in the kitchen.
We had some really good times back then !
