My dad, Paul Tackett, has been a longtime neighbor of Mr. Fred and Mrs. Rose.
Mr. Fred would often drive to my dad's place on his four wheeler to stop in for a visit. I had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Fred during most of my trips to Illinois through the years. When my children were younger, Mr. Fred was always so kind to welcome them to go fishing in their pond--a favorite childhood memory of theirs.
I pray for peace and comfort for Mrs. Rose and the family during this time of loss.

What a wonderful visit, church service, and gathering at the farm after with the whole family and many friends celebrating a life well lived. Fred was, is, and forever will be a legend, a mentor, and now our friend in heaven.

Freddie and Rose were great neighbors. We will miss his visits. Both Freddie and Rose were there for us when I lost my parents. May his spirit live on. Prayers for Rose and the entire family.

Mr. Krueger was such good neighbor to our brother Paul Tackett. It was a comfort to us, living so far away from our brother, to know Mr. Fred was there for him. May God grant you His peace and comfort during this time of loss.
