I remember Uncle Freddie always being the life of the party, he always made you laugh, always had a joke, I remember when he and Aunt Karen and the kids would come out to our house on the farm or we'd go to their house, lots of good memories, will never forget him and pretty sure my mom his sister was their to welcome him home.
To know my grandfather was to love him. I've never heard anyone speak ill of him. He was strong, brave, and selfless. He gave to others until he had nothing to give. I have more memories than I can list here. Nearly every memory I have of him is full of love and laughter. He will always mean the world to me and I will miss him dearly every day.
I have so many memories of Fred, And the family I don't know where to begin. We have done so much together as neighbors and Fred is like family to all of us..Fred you R.I. P. my bff. You maybe gone but will never be forgotten..
I love you Dad, and miss you so very much. My recent favorite memory of him is when we stopped at a gas station and a guy outside was selling Safari type hats. Dad bought one and he was so happy. You could see the light in his eyes. He was like a child again.
