I worked with Fred at The Bradford. We had an immediate connection when I decorated my office with all my razorback memorabilia. He became a wonderful friend to me and very defensive of me if anyone were to say anything against me. The Arkansas bond and friendship was always there. No one could tell a story like Fred. His laughter was contagious There is a resident at The Bradford that Fred made sure always had pocket money. I will miss him dearly and know his family will. RIP my dear Razorback friend. I'm sur you are calling the hogs in heaven. You had a heart of gold
