To Claire and the entire Haspel Family: Elaine and I are saddened to hear of Freds passing - such a true gentleman in every sense of the word. He was such a positive influence on me as well as many of my friends and family. Our childhood at St. Christopher´s was marked by his dedication and support for the community. Rest in peace.
