There are many things that I have lost over the years. But this time it is different. I have lost a friend that was very dear to me. Despite having to move 114 miles from Pennsylvania, Fred has always been both in my heart and my children’s also. Fred was my friend, my Amateur radio and computer buddy. We would get together and I would take him to lunch when I worked in pa. We went to computer shows together and attended the radio club meetings. I enjoyed helping him with some of the projects around the house. Fred was always fun and entertaining. To his son I send my condolences, it is heartbreaking to have to face this. Try to stay strong and do well it is what he would have wanted. I am honored to have been his friend and thankful for friendship we shared. May God bless and keep him close and watch over his family.
