On June 30, 1979 he married the love of his life Kelly Hanekamp at the Sacred Heart Church in Watertown. Fred was the true definition of a family man. He was a devoted husband, amazing father and grandfather, and an overall incredible person. He lived his whole life for his family and cherished every moment he could spend with them, especially with his best friend Kelly.
Fred loved traveling with his family and hunting with his sons. Fred was a member of the St. Regis Rod & Gun Club, where he killed way bigger bucks than his brothers, Jim and Bob, who Fred was so kind to teach them how to hunt in the big woods.
