Dear Jean, Allison, Joy, Dave, Maureen, and family, Our deepest condolences on the loss of your husband/brother/father/grandfather. May you find solace in the fact that he lives on in all those who know and love him.

Dear Jean, Joy, Allison, Dave, Maureen and Family We are so sad to hear of Fred’s passing, he was a foundation in the lives of so many people throughout the community having a positive impact on everyone associated with him. I will always fondly remember the iconic Fred head shake; he didnât criticize he just shook his head and gave a little laugh. It was a privilege to have known Fred (aka the Big Guy). Everyone will miss Fred as he was one of the nicest men you could ever have the pleasure of knowing in your lifetime. We wish you well, our thoughts are with you. Sincerely Dave Cindy Sara Gunderson

Our deepest sympathies to the entire family on the loss of Fred. He will be sadly missed by family, neighbours, friends and the communities where he lived and gave so freely of his time/extensive knowledge. His patience, gentle ‘advice’ and generosity of time/spirit made Fred a wonderful neighbour and friend. We will remember him with fondness and appreciation.

Although I did not know Fred personally, I do know that his passing will leave a big hole in all your hearts, but the memories of your time together will bring you lots of joy!

Jean and family… There were many unforgettable happy times with Fred especially during the “Thompson Honda” years. Our thoughts and prayers are with you… Sid and Myrta

Jean, David & family, Allison & family, Joy & family:: Our hearts go to out to all of you. Fred may be gone, but he will always be with us in spirit. May peace be with you all. He will surely be missed.
