I worked at Black Industries for 27 years and knew Fred during that time. He was always so pleasant no matter what was happening. When it snowed he would pick up the girls that lived in and around Creedmoor and take them to work. Fred was a good person and a southern gentleman. I am glad I knew Fred. Prayers for his loved ones.
