Fred lived his life by his terms. He loved his family and was never afraid to show it or tell anyone who would listen about us. He was so proud of Nick and Natalie and all of the accomplishments they have made in their short lives. He was blessed with a group of very special friends and how he enjoyed spending time with them. He told me that the best times of his life was when he was in his perogue tyring to catch a "hogger" large mouth bass. We will miss Fred but we understand why he felt like he had to do what he did. We forgive him and we are happy that his mind is now at peace. Baby, we will see you again one day. Know that you were the love of my life and I will love you forever.
