I miss uncle Fred. He was the dad I never had growing up. The few short months I lived with Fred and Renee (&Gina) were some of the best times of my life. I learned to fish, camp, garden and what it takes to be a great parent. I’ll always love y’all as the parents God let me have for a short while. See ya in Heaven you awesome Man

Our father, Aloys, would drive us to visit the Streit cousins in St. Cloud. My sympathy to the family.
I haven’t seen Fred for many years but I do remember going over to his house when he had a big printer in
his garage. He was a nice guy and
was one of the 52 1st Fischer cousins.
