Dave Klussendorf wrote a sympathy message

“Fred and I went to several local Azusa College classes together to get salary schedule teacher credit. We called each other Mr. Azusa when we saw each other. I also reffed intramural basketball at the h. s. for him. He was a great guy and will be missed.”

Timothy Hixon wrote a sympathy message

“Every XMas eve, when I was a child, Fred would don his Santa suit and pay us a visit. We would receive a gift from him, then he'd wish us a Merry Christmas, then leave. No matter the rumors of there not being a Santa, I knew better because he was at my house, I am 57, but I can still feel the excitement I felt when the doorbell rang XMas eve. Fred truly had the heart of Santa, and will alway have a special place in my memories. May God bless him and the Yndestad family.”
