Lynn and Sarah,
I'm so sorry to hear about Fred's passing. Lynn hopefully you remember my.wife and I from Nashville when I worked with Fred at Baird Ward Printing in 1979. I have many fond memories of you and Fred and Sarah as a baby. I've tried many times over the years to find you and Fred to make contact but had been unsuccessful until just the other day, when I saw the bad news of Fred's passing. You and Sarah are in our prayers and wishes.

So sorry to have taken so long. But this is hard for me. Lynn I am so to have heard this news. Please know that you have been in my thoughts and prayers. Working with Fted on some of Heathers music was a great honor. I have recording s that I would like to get to you if your do not have. Seeing you guys at ABG was also a highlight of my evening. We always say we need to get together. But time goes on And before you know it you get news knowing that that day will not come on this earth. But it will come and I know I will see Fred again.
Lynn, I've been out of the country and just learned of Fred's passing - there are no words for how sorry I am. He was such a wonderful guy and one of the nicest, friendliest people I've ever known. I have many happy memories of the long talks we used to have when we were both at RRD, and he always spoke so lovingly and respectfully of you and Sarah. He will surely be missed by everyone who knew him.
Ron and I send our love and sympathy to you, Sarah, and all of your family.
Lynn you have been on my mind for 2 months. I am glad that I met your husband and Bill was glad to work with him at Donnelley. Please know that if you need anything, I am still living in the house on the hill.

I was lucky to have work with Fred at R. R. Donnelly. We traveled together for worked a number of time. If we were traveling though Chicago we had to make time to eat at an Italian restaurant. In LA a real Mexican restaurant was the place. Being around Fred was always a good time. Fred will be missed by anyone that had the pleasure to be around him.

Lynn & Family-
I uploaded 10 photos for you of Fred on pedal steel with our past bands and with either Wayne Reno or myself. Rick Wayne Bowman
Hi Lynn & Family-
I played drums with Fred on guitar and pedal steel for over a decade with Wayne Reno. He was an all around great guy with a smile upon his face. I feel an emptiness inside... I have many recordings of Fred on Pedal steel (and guitar) in my collection, and a few photos that I will share with you. I remember some funny things Fred used to say too, which I can't mention here...
My Condolences, "Rick" Wayne Bowman
He will be missed. So glad I got to know him. We met at Nabisco in Niagara falls New York
Such a good man and I loved to hear him play the steel guitar
