Denise, Mary Jane and Family:
I will never forget Freddie's kindness after we lost my brother. Gene would tag along with Freddie, Chris, Keith, and the Halpin boys. Honestly, Gene adored all of them. They had a few years on him.
After Gene died, those boys would stop in to check on my mom to say hello.
Often your husband would make a special trip by himself to sit with my mom and or dad. He was always an admirable and kind man...even... early on.
We thought the world of him.
From the bottom of my heart I am so sorry.
I will pray for all of you.

Sending continued prayers and thoughts for those that Freddie left behind, way too soon.
Our story was a zillion years ago, but I was so blessed to feel like I was part of the Friedman family for a time.
The most simple and cherished memories happened around the dining table or in the carport of Princeton Rd . Feeling lucky to have had them.
May all of your memories with him help get you through your loss. xo

When someone we love falls asleep in death the memories we have of them become our treasure, may those cherished memories of a life well lived and Gods promise at John 6:40 bring you a measure of peace and comfort during this most difficult time. My deepest condolences to the family.

I recently had the distinct pleasure of meeting and working with Freddy, albeit for far too short of a time. He recently brought individual gifts for our crew. As a matter of fact, I was so looking forward to telling him Wednesday, how much I enjoyed the homemade split pea soup he had brought for me on Monday. As a foreman he was a gentleman and respectful. As a man, he was kind, generous, and caring. A true pleasure to work with and he will be deeply missed. I wish I had more time with him, a sentiment I'm sure so many other people share. My heartfelt condolences to you and your family in your time of sorrow.
