When my husband and I moved to our first home in Kansas City, immediately after our wedding, Fred and family were our next door neighbors. We got to be friends and our friendship continued with Christmas cards all these years. His daughter Ruth has continued our connections and has updated me on many levels of the annual reports. Even though Fred also wrote about their activities. My husband and I moved to Vancouver WA in 1968 and the cards still continued until this past Christmas. That's an outstanding friend at his age. Ruth sent me the beautiful article from this funeral home. I love the mountain and the stars effect with the eagles in flight. What a beautiful thought of where Fred is now, along with my husband on June 15, 2015.

Fred was a cherished friend to Paul and I. Life was sometimes really hard on him but he never complained. His faith took him through dark and light. He will be missed.

We Loved Fred, he was faithful to come to Church when he was in town. He had a loving heart, I don't know of anyone that he had bad feelings with.
