"When my husband and I moved to Ireland, Fred said he would come see us. I thought everyone says that, but true to his word he came the following year and we had a great time. He loved to travel and see new places and meet new people. He is sadly missed. You are always in our hearts Fred Gloria and Frank Omeara"
"Fred Fred Fred, I miss you so very much... a true friend no matter what or when he was always there for me and I am forever grateful. Upbeat outgoing he would always make you welcome... great guy with wonderful family, friends that shows it. Being the first to know but waiting for last day to write?why?? Cuz i didn't want to say goodbye twice. God Bless You - with much love Lauri"
"My dear Fred how I will never forget your kindness and friendship. You were such a special person and my memories will carry me till we see each other again. Have fun with Lori and my Frank till we are all together once again.You will be missed at our monthly dinners. Love always, karen and the dinner gang"
"Fred was a man of character and honor. He loved a social gathering and was very family oriented. He was a wonderful uncle to us all, and my husband Tony cherished and admired him all of his life. We have enjoyed a close relationship with him, both in NY and CA. Many wonderful memories were shared with that man. He will be missed and always loved."
"Where to start! A man that wasn't just a friend but like a father as well! Some memories: Hanging with Fred at the Boardy Barn, hanging in Vegas, having a couple of beers and discussing how he was going to miss JB (and how he just built the pool). Fred(Dad) Your spirit and memory will always be part of those who had the honor and privilege to know you. You'll be missed."
"I have known Freddie for well over 25 years. Met through the Blue Knights & stayed friends forever. Since he moved to Nevada we kept in contact by phone & occasional vists. He always made me welcome in his home. Always had a big smile, a wonderful laugh & a heart as big as Texas. Many good times were had. I will miss him so very much. Rest in peace. Love, Diane"
"At a time in my life when I needed love and support the most, Fred took me into his house with, my cousin, Terry and Nancy for one glorious summer. I have never forgotten that wonderful time and how I was forever part of the Bissert family. It was my second home one where I was always welcome. The last time I saw Fred in he was ready to party. Love you Fred, you will be greatly missed."
"Fred, or Uncle Freddie was a total sweetheart- such a nice man- if his day was composed of upset, you would never know. A smile was constantly on his face, not ever a frown. Therefore I dub him to be the "powerhouse of positivity"- great man, gave wonderful hugs, and he will be with us in spirit. He will give God a big old belly laugh daily. Love to all <3"
"Fred was a dedicated communicator, always IMing me whenever he and were on line together. My Husband and I worked with Fred for WeServe, but beyond that I rode my motorcycle with Fred on several trips. The most memorable was a trip to a ranch here in Las Vegas where he knew the owners. I always wanted to follow up with them but never got around to it. Fred was a generous/sharing man."
"You will be missed by both Frank and myself. We remember when you and Nancy came to visit us in Ireland and the good time we had. We had no idea about your passing and only found out a few moments ago when we talked to our relatives in Ireland, as somehow we did not receive the email from the family. Again our deepest sympathy"
"Freddie and I spoke after the holidays and I promised to stop on my road trip this summer. While I knew Fred when he was in NYI and I in NYX my fondest memories of him will always be our "pre-convention" trip through Utah on the way to Colorado for Convention. I will miss your laugh and smile but will keep you in my heart and thoughts. Jo"
"From Lk. Ronk., NY to Las Vegas, Nv., the mcl. trips across USA, our co-employment & as condo. neighbors in L.V. Though we often had strong disagreements, I look back with fond memories of our many years of friendship, as co-workers and road warriors together thru memories thick & thin....May he forever rest in peace."
"Freddie, I found out by chance that you have left us. I am deeply touched by your untimely passing. Just a week ago I spoke to you over SKYPE and you were complaining about an intestinal virus problem. I had no idea how serious it was and cheered you up by telling you to take medication and see a doctor!
With tears in my eyes, I miss you Freddie! Bob + Silke"
"My best friend Freddie: Fred and I met close to 5 years ago at an Outback Steakhouse in Las Vegas. After a couple of hours of conversation he said to me: "I think we may become true friends some day." He was correct. We have traveled together, helped each other when needed and shared lots of good times. For the rest of my life I will miss him more than I can possibly put into words."
"my husband dennis and i came from national airlines to pan am and as with all the other pan am people freddie welcomed us with open arms. always a smile on his face and always there to help when you had a problem. the world will be a little sadder without him and our sympathies are with his family for their loss. god rest your soul fred!!!"
"Fred and I had just talked on Skype. We had worked together at Pan Am for many years and it was good chating with him. He will be missed. Every year I host a party at my house for my Pan Am friends and every year Freddie wanted to attend, but something always came up. When I last talked to him he said he was going to make it this year. He will be with us in spirit this year."
"The angels looked down from heaven one night
They searched for miles afar,
And deep within the distance
They could see a shining star.
They knew that very instant
That the star was theirs to gain,
So they took you up to heaven
Forever to remain.
Look down on us from heaven
Keep us free from hurt and pain,
You'll always be within my heart
Until we meet again"
