Fred is one of my favorite people; I'm just lucky that we're family as well. I had the fortune of being able to visit my Dad, Jim, and Cousin Fred in Arkansas for a few late season fishing trips in recent years. I admired Fred's ability to engage in meaningful conversation with pretty much anyone. I admired Fred's wit and charm that did not waiver in his final years. I admired Fred for his sweetness. He was a beautiful human being and someone I very much look up to for all the reasons stated and more. I'm not entirely sure what heaven will be like, but if it includes getting to spend more time with Fred on a fishing boat with our lines in the water, that'd be alright by me. Love you, sir!
