Fred was a World War II US Army veteran, having served as a medic in Japan during the occupation. Fred loved classical music, art, literature, history and fine wine. His life-long passion was photography, and he was rarely seen without at least one camera around his neck and his signature large camera bag. A favorite activity of his was exploring the back roads and ghost towns of his beloved New Mexico, often camping with at least one of his dogs. Cremation has taken place.
