My condolences to Lee, Freddy, Kevin, Karen , Nancy & your families. I spent a lot of time sitting w Freddy & my dad at young Freddy's hockey games as a kid, and I enjoyed just hanging out with them. I can't think of a compliment higher than that he was a truly great guy. My thoughts & prayers are with you.
