    Sadness fills my heart when thinking of Freddy leaving us so soon. He had so much more to give, reunions to attend and FB messages to post. It will be hard not to expect to see him on FB and at the reunions. We were MHS Stingarees and have known one another since 1966. It was so nice to find him on Facebook, and talk to him at the reunions in Melbourne, FL. So glad I got to see him in May and give him a hug. I will remember his witty comments and fun loving personality. I pray that God will strengthen his family and give them peace,. as they deal with the loss of a dear father, brother, grandpa and friend.. Thank you for touching my life in a special way. You were truly a fun loving person and a talented artist. Your love for life and your friends comes through in your work. Rest in peace my friend.

    Freddy will be missed. Hugged Freddy last time in May 2018. Who knew it would be the last time. It will be so strange to go to our 50th MHS reunion without visiting with Freddy. Goodbye my sweet brother.

    I went to Shenandoah Elementary, Shenandoah Junior High and Miami High with Freddy and I'm heartbroken that his life ended way too soon. He will be missed by so many. Freddy and I were very interactive on Facebook and I have already been missing that and I know our high school reunions will never quite be the same without him. May he rest in peace!
