Faith-Family-Friends.

That sums up my rememberance of Fred.

We worked together at Morey Machinery and shared many conversations about our mutual faith, our families, and we became friends. His love of the outdoors, of dancing, and families gave us lots to talk about. He was a devoted Father and loved his sons like no other Dad I knew. How happy he was to find the love of his life in Chris...and how blessed to have shared the past years with her.

Fred will be missed by all those that knew and loved him.

May God's Grace, Peace and Love be with you John, David and Chris as you deal with the loss of this good man.

My sympathy goes to the family of Fred. I had the pleasure of knowing him through my eighteen years of working in the office at VAW. He always had a pleasant smile and a most kind word to say.

I always admired Freddy while I was a college student working with him at Morey Machinery in Middletown. Freddy was always friendly and willing to help. I have fond memories of him that will last a lifetime. I wish his family God's speed as they deal with their loss. Freddy was a very good man.
