R.I.P Fred, as you will Truly be missed… Heather and Family, please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Freddy, you left us way too soon boss, friend, mentor and a genuinely good good man. I loved working with you as you willingly shared your knowledge, always had a sincere smile, always was appreciative. I loved to hear you talking about “happy plants” and because of your tutelage I learned how I could, in my assorted roles, keep them happy–because you took the time to share your skills. You were a vital part of the Fick family operation, and I am deeply grateful that you helped me in so many ways as I fumbled my way through the learning process. You were delightfully patient. I know that you were a huge blessing to your family, and to them–I am deeply sorry for your loss.
