So sorry to hear of Fred’s death. Our family has many fond memories of Fred’s lovely way of engaging conversation with all ages and stages. The memory “Sister Act” of Clay, Fred and Les brings smiles to us all. Condolences to Marion and family whom Fred loved very much. It was an honour to have known Fred.

I was so very sorry to hear that my old buddy Fred had passed on. Fred was such a kind man with a big generous heart! Family and friends were everything to Fred and he made sure we knew that. He was always so involved with community. Always looking for ways to help and to be a part of things. I had the great fortune to be a part of Fred's musical world. He loved music and we spent many a practice and performance together as part of The Purcell Mountain Boys. Fred tought me so much about the history of country, folk and rock and roll music. He was such a joyful guy with that great big laugh of his! I sure am going to miss you old friend. Keep the beat until we meet again. Dwight Tardif

Our family has so many happy memories of Fred and Marion. Fred loved playing his drums and percussion instruments while Performing with the Purcell Mountain Boys, they played for many events around the area including the Christmas dinner for seniors at the Columbo Lodge. Fred loved house parties, our little group, in the early days, (1989) included the Richardsons, Murphys and Skrettings had such fun, there was always good food, great music and lots of laughs. We will miss you old friend, RIP

Remembering Fred’s belly laughs and sense of humour. He and Clay and my dad were so mischievous. Thanks for the brilliant memories and the sage advice through the years.
