Fred will be long remembered by me as a true friend who not only gave me the start with OGR but also taught me a lot about magazine development and photography. On a few but nonetheless memorable occasions, Fred and I got to spend all-too-short spans of time together, and I will remember them all with fondness. His warm smile and quiet but assured personality were truly infectious. When I accepted the editor's desk from Fred's stewardship, he passed on tips and wisdom for doing the job that quickly proved to be immensely helpful. He heard me say this before in real-time and I have to say it again--thank you Fred.
