Angry Re: Very sad day

Fred was one of a kind. I enjoyed his company as a friend a racer and an employee. In my last 5 years of work (my semi retirement) I worked for him as his outside commercial sales manager.

He was a true Christian that showed me so many times how to live a Christ like life. He always said if you want a friend then be a friend. I could tell stories for hours of his kindness and caring for his fellow men women and children.

As a racer he loved the sport and always gave his all doing most all of it by himself. I remember calling him in Vegas while at SEMA one year and he had just won the points race there in Stock we met for dinner and had a great evening.

Working for him was a dream job he always treated his employees with respect and kindness. We would circle around one of the dealerships on Fridays and have a prayer for the community and the country.

As a friend he was loyal and real. Always there should you need help.

As a Christian he was a great example of living a Christ like life. I have lost a crucial member of my inner circle and I will remember him forever. Fred May you bask in the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ and may your memory be eternal.

On Saturday, 22 April, prior to eliminations commencing at the Noble Division 4 race, announcer Chris Monaghan communicated a tribute for Fred over the PA, and all in attendance observed a moment of silence in honor of Fred. He and his family were also a focus of the RFC pastor’s invocation.

Cool Re: Very sad day

I never met this gentleman, but I with I had. The thing that distinguishes a Christian isn't his doctrine or his theology, It's his testimony. There is no greater testimony than what people know you to be during your lifetime. I want to hear,"Well done, faithful servant" when it's all over. Thank all of you for your kind words.

Thinking of Fred today, 4/26. He was a really nice guy - he even let me work on his beautiful Hemi Dart a little bit one time at Norwalk. Race in Peace, Mopar Brother.
