I was so sorry to hear of the death of Fred and wish to offer condolences to Sarah and the Cooney family. Your dad had a great capacity for friendship, and connected with people from all walks of life both young and old. His love of nature and the outdoors was always apparent, and he was the best of company. He and my late husband Des enjoyed many trips, walking, hiking, cycling in Germany etc. which he recalled with great humor. Fred had a generosity of spirit, and was a true gentleman. He,ll be sorely missed by you and all who knew him.
