My deeepest sympathy and condolences to all of Fred's family.

My brother and I went to grade school with Fred at SS Peter & Paul.

Later, I worked with Fred at South Works Caster and #4 Electric furnaces.

I was a maintaince foreman with him on turn.

Did not see him much at Gary Works. He is a great friend and co-worker.

May he rest in peace, God blest you, Fred.
