Sad for Suzanne and their daughters that a man who mattered came to journey's end. As a former Windsor Square resident, I know that Fred made a meaningful difference for many less advantaged LA residents and leaves a lasting legacy of a life that mattered.

A boss, a mentor, and an inspiration. Someone many of us aspire to be, but so few accomplish.
