Uncle Fred. I can still hear you laugh. I have so many fond memories of your visits and the silly songs you sang and things you did. Everyone needs an uncle like you. So sad your time with us has come to a close.
My deepest condolences to Aunt Gayle and family. You are in my thoughts and prayers on a daily basis.😢🙏❤️

Uncle Fred I hear your laughter, you had the best laugh. I didn’t even have to know what you were laughing about, your laugh would make me smile. We are all going to miss that laugh. I hear your slow drawl as you tell a really farfetched story to one of the little kids convincing them that whatever you are saying is the absolute truth. You would chuckle as the kid ran off to tell your story to others.
Your memory still makes me smile but with tears in my eyes. I will miss you as will everyone else, especially Auntie Gayle, your kids, your grandkids and your great grandkids.
Margaret Peirson says
Fred full of jokes and laughter but like all people also had his faults, a brother I loved and my memories will always be filled with love. He will be missed.
