I am so sorry to hear about your loss. If I had known he was ill I would have come to visit him. I first met Fred when I was 16 and did try to see him as much as I could. I will always remember him as being fun loving and he loved his family. I wish we had more time together to learn more about each other. He was a part of me and my family and will be remembered.
