Passed away peacefully surrounded by family on January 27th, 2024 at RJH.
Fred will be dearly missed by his wife Tina, son David (Tanya), daughter Katherine (Mark), granddaughter Keira, sisters Betty (Brian), Chris (Michael), and Audrey, as well as his sister-in-law Kathy, nephews Rob, Jim and Jamie, nieces Sarah and Shannon.
He enjoyed camping, fishing, gardening, & “McGyvering”. Fred was always sporting various ball caps, whether it be his favorite Toronto Blue Jays, or representing the many suppliers, clients and friends made throughout the years in the construction industry. His working years were spent from many a roof top. He enjoyed discovering new places and friends made along the way.

Kelly Goddard Fred was a wonderful person to work with. Great twinkle in his eyes when he was joking around and an amazing smile. My sincere condolences to his family and close friends.
Fred was a hero of mine. I looked up to him from the moment I was fortunate enough to meet him. I got to work with Fred, and he had an eager life student to learn from him. I will never forget the impact he had on my life.
