Fred was the first friend I made when I migrated to Las Vegas from N.Y. in 1960. He was instrumental in procuring my first job in the silver state. We have met for lunch, periodically over the past 55 yrs.
Fred was a remarkable human being. I am blessed to have had him touch my life. I will miss my friend very much. My condolences to his wonderful family.
