I was sad to see Fred's obit listed here this morning. I grew up a couple of doors down from Fred when he lived in Barberton. I remember the days he would give me a ride to school in his Firebird convertible and thought I was cool. He was was super nice kind of guy. Im sure he will be missed by all of his family. My thoughts and prayers go out to you all at this time.
