He was very talented..he was very protective of his friends and family and just an all around great guy. He used to drive us crazy with the noise his hotrod cars made and if you rode anywhere with him you better get ready for a ride. He was so musically inclined and I knew Mr.Sam and Ms. Geraldine as well…I know they and Lisa are celebrating in Heaven right now..It is great that you were in his life and I hope that you will be okay without him. All of Huntington knew and loved him, and we will see him again. Peace to you and the family…Sincerely…Mary Anne Hunter ( Crawford )’

‘The earth is dinner without you in it. It’s hard to grasp that I will never hear your greeting, feel your warmth in your hugs, see your smile. I will miss discussing the last movie we saw, dissecting the motivations of family, agreeing that we’ve come a long way since we first met. Rest well brother. We’ll meet again soon enough.’
‘For many years Fred was a part of our family’s Christmas tradition. While visiting his in-laws on Christmas Day he took the time to walk across the street for a visit with us. He was such a kind, gentle, and unique man. He had a large role in building the bridge between our family and our dear friends, Don and Betty Bilicki. We will always think of Fred on Christmas. May his soul rest in eternal peace.’
