Carole and Family,I am so sorry for your loss. May Fred rest in peace.Michael Ray
Carol & Family I am sorry for your loss. I come every day at lunch to Freddies Dairy Freeze from school. I had a standing order. He made the best cheese burgers. He will be greatly missed. Many memories will be kept in your heart. May God be with you and your family in this time of loss.
Carol I am thinking of you and your family.
Carol & Family. I am very sorry for your loss. Fred and Carol were always so kind, from hiring me to work in their carnival, to the numerous visits at Freddies Freeze. I have fond memories of working the carnival rides, eating foot long hot dogs and cotton candy. I can still visualize Fred working the Ferris Wheel, listening to the Monkeys on 8-track. Those were great times during my youth, and I have shared many of the stories with my children. Thank you for those. May the God of hope comfort you in this time. Barry Collins

Sit around with each other and share the good times and bad. Make sure there is lots of laughter. With all this the healing will begin. Nothing like a good old Freddie burger and Carol's wonderful pies. KEEPING YOU ALL is our hearts and prayers. The Carl Seifert family. Bonnie, Roger and Cyndi and Dave and Debbie
