Title: Sad News
Post by: Kawboy on December 20, 2008, 10:07:38 AM
This is Fred's friend Margie.  I want to inform you that Fred's son commit suicide Wed. night.  He has been staying with me and I think he needs some friends.  There will be no service, but if the group would like to do something for him he is pretty strapped for funds and could use what you would have spent on flowers in cash.  I know this sounds cold, but Fred would never let anyone know.  If you wish to call him his phone number is 845-797-7405 or you can viasit him at my home at 7096 Albany Hills Ct NE, Rio Rancho.  You can also feel free to call me at 867-7439.  Say a prayer for him.

May you find Peace

Hey guys,

i just got off the phone with Margie.  She suggested having the potluck at her house.  She said she doesn't have access to the board so call her rather than post up your decision.  Wish I could be down there tomorrow night.

P.S.  Sorry to horn in on the plans, but she asked me to post it since she didn't have access.   :(

Ok, change of plans.  Now I just talked to Margie and Kingbaby and I are going to have the potluck at our place downtown.  Talked to Pam also and she and Zaster will bring Frybread fixin's and Red chile stew.  Everyone is welcome.  Post up, PM or just call if you need directions or have any questions.  We can't wait to see you all around 7!!!   [beer]  [wine]

I would like to thank each and everyone of you for your thoughts, prayers, and generosity during this period of my life.  It has been very difficult but knowing that the High Desert Hooligans, my friends, are there for me has helped me immeasurably through this.   Tuesday night I was overwhelmed by the support I received and for a short time was able to put my grief  on the back burner in my mind.  I thank you all for that.  In the future, if any of you need anything, never hesitate to call me.  If I can do it, it will be done.  God bless you all.

Fred, I regret that I couldn't make it down on Tuesday.  If you ever make it up north, please give me a shout.
