I think of Fred and I remember his smile and his jovial way about him. He still puts a smile on my face. I passed the house the other day and I thought of the entire family. Fred, I will see you one day in Heaven. Enjoy being in God's presence. One day we will see each other again. My prayers to the whole family, Michael Euliano

Marian and family,
We were so sorry to hear that Fred had passed. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. I remember when we first met you and Fred in Hawaii. He was always so upbeat and spoke in such loving words about his Marian and children. He was fun to be with and a genuine and good person. You came to Pittsburgh and we all shared a weekend together after 911, reflecting on the tragedy and trying to make sense of such loss. I'm sorry I couldn't join Matt to be with you at the funeral. My thoughts were with you and your family. We will surely miss Fred. We lost touch over the years but you were both in our thoughts many times.
Love, Sam & Matt

Mark and I were saddened to hear of Fred's passing. We pray that you and your family will find comfort in the memories you had of your time together. We still smile about sharing his birthday cake and all the times he stopped to talk while playing golf at Miromar. He certainly will be missed.

From the very first I met Fred at the Cursillo he made, thru the years following, you and the kids were always mentioned with loving praise. Fred's passion was his hallmark, and he touched my life as one of our G. R. Brothers from #156. Decolores Fred !

January 25, 2013
I absolutely loved each and every time we met. Never just a handshake, always an embrace. Always he would ask, how is Mary, and how are the kids, and always by name. Fred always made you feel like you were the most important person in the room. What I remember most was his passion for everything! Always God and Family first, how he loved you all. I have never met a man who so loved life, and family, and friends, then Fred. Should you ever need anything, or just to talk, Mary and I are always here for you. I look forward to the day when Fred and I renew our friendship till the end of time. Heaven just added a good man.
