There are two constants in all my memories of Fred: he was smiling that big bright smile, and he was near his son Mike. I can´t think of a better definition of a life well lived, even if passed by much too soon.

So sorry to hear of Fred´s passing. He was such a fun and caring person. We met during the years I worked with Lee Livermore at Anthem. Loved the years he drove down to Indianapolis for the Indy 500 and brought family, friends and of course was the life of the party! May he rest in peace. Chrissie and Mike, and all the family, may your many memories bring you comfort. He lived life!

My condolences to the Krull family. It was very sad news to hear of Fred´s passing. While we were colleagues at Smith Barney where I was a trader and Fred one of our best salesmen, he was also a dear friend. I had the good fortune of staying in touch with Fred through occasional talks on the phone and periodically seeing him for lunch well after we went our separate ways in the late 90´s. Speaking with Fred was just the medicine to lighten my day. His humor was infectious. I will personally miss speaking with him, and am sure he will be sorely missed by everyone he called his friends, colleagues and acquaintances. See you on the other side, my friend!

To the Krull family,
We are so sorry for your loss of dear Fred. He was a wonderful man and we always looked forward to his annual visit to our office. His sense of humor and his love for his family will continue to live long after he has moved on. We will miss his sunny disposition and his smile and gentle laugh. He loved all of you very much. The world is smaller without him. Take good care of yourselves. George and Charlotte

Fred was the first bond salesman I met when I started way back in 1976. He was a good friend for almost 50 years. For a brief period when I wasn´t managing money he was the only sell-side person who kept in contact with me. Even when I was in Alaska and his firm didn´t meet the criteria to cover us, we still talked. Fred was honest and truly wanted the best for his clients. He was also the best source of good people to hire. I am honored to be his friend. Fred will be sorely missed. It was a shock to hear of his passing. We had talked just the week before. Fred had a great life and a wonderful family.

Mr. Krull always took the time to talk, joke, and share his joy with my family. He always had a quip to make and a story to share with whomever he came across. As kids, he always made sure to inspire the mischief in us, but ensured we were watched and taken care of. He always supported our antics and priortized the comfort and joy of all the neghborhood kids and his grandchildren. He truly made a difference in our community, and I am proud to have had the privilege of growing up with him looking out for me and my brothers.
I wish him a peaceful rest, and that he may feel how loved and appreciated he is by everyone who knew him. I express my deepest condolences and sympathy to all of the Krull family. Sending my love.
