Terry lee wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Barbara and Kevin, We were saddened to learn of Fred’s passing. I will never forget the tour of his remarkable building and seeing his collections. He also shared the events that made up his life and achievements. I don’t believe there was anything that he couldn’t do. I have told Nancy and my boys that Fred was probably the most intelligent man that I have met during my years. If there is anything that you need please call me. Our prayers are with you. Terry Lee”
