Dad I miss you so!!! You are my hero, my strength, and the greatest man that God ever put on this earth!! I know you were not happy being in ICU, those moments are forever imprinted in my heart. If I could do it all over again I would have not let them take you there, but let you go in peace... I am sorry, please forgive me, I just wanted you to live and was hoping for a miracle from heaven.... but God had other plans. It was time for you to go, to go home and be with Jesus.

Our time on this earth is only for a moment and one day we will be together again, until then dad "May the winds of heaven blow softly... and whisper in your ear how much we love and miss you and wish that you were here." I love you dad always and forever!!

Psalm 30:5 “For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.”

Fred loved his family dearly. He loved the land and found peace on the tractor caring for trees. We will miss him.
