Aunt Kathleen;

I was so sorry to read about the death of uncle Fred. I have fond memories of you & uncle Fred visiting my mothers(Amelia Zander) home on John's Island. I have one picture of Fred and other family members "Singing" at Christmas time. I may be wrong but I even rember the song being "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling. Thanks for providing Happy Memories to fall back on.

I have many happy memories of times spent with Uncle Fred over the years. We used to fish alot together and we had some good times. Sheri and I were saddened to learn of his death and hope that he can now rest free of pain. Our prayers are with all the family members.
