Kerry and Ken,
These are hard to write, there just does not ever seem to be words that might bring comfort or peace in these hard times we have to deal with as spirits in this material world. I hope with closest friends and family time will ease the pains. Your family is in my heart and thoughts. I remember my time spent at Kelly, my talks with Ken in the office, I almost felt like family a lot of the time. I can only imagine then how much Fred must have known he was loved by such great people. My memories of Fred were of some years ago, on the job sites and the shop. Great memories! I am thankful of modern social media and was able to follow Fred and chat with him of more recent. For 8 years or so the Kelly's were a big part of my life and I am thankful for knowing Fred and you both. With warmest regards,

Dearest Kerry and Ken,
We are devastated to hear the news of Freddie passing. He was a beautiful little boy, who I remember meeting for the first time at the lake, and grew into a talented and handsome young man. It was such a treat to see him again, after so many years, when Merv and I visited a couple of Septembers ago. You are in our thoughts and prayers and the memories of Freddie will remain precious forever in our hearts and minds. Our love to you and the family, always, Angela and Merv xx
