I wanted to take charge on this guys and gal. We could take donations and get flowers food or whatever to help out with the burden on Sheila. Rod is gonna call around the Niagara area and find out some place to get food made up to have sent to their home. I have a PayPal and whoever wants to donate could send it to me a as a gift and mark it as flowers for Fred or something like that.


Paypal is

Would it be possible to have a custom card made up? "From Freddy's Slaves of RCT&T" (a bit of comic relief for Freddy's family to laugh together), with perhaps a picture of Frankie and/or the Street Sweeper on the cover, probably his two most unique & original builds recently.

Either a compliation of our thoughts as one or for each of us to express our charished memories of how we each knew Freddy?

I can photoshop something together if we get some ideas together as to what we want, and the logistics as to how to get it to Niagara.

In - For a recent passing the family asked for living memorials - potted plants or trees - had looked and found a local nursery who really helped out - differnet area and different family .... just a thought.....

Thanks everyone for the donations so far. I would like to ask though if when you do donate please put your user name in the PayPal message box. I want to make sure that everyone who donated is ID'd correctly. thanks!

Is anyone here that knew him personally attending the visitation of funeral?

There's not much time to make it happen, but how about putting together a photobook with pictures of all of his builds? Those who knew Freddie from a different perspective can catch a glimpse of the amazing and creative things we knew him best for.

They are available for 1 hour or same-day pickup. We could just set it up to be picked up at the nearest walgreens/wally world/etc.

I would be happy to put something together myself, or make a donation towards it if someone else would rather set it up.

I was thinking that would be an awesome thing to do.

That is a great idea!

I know you're spearheading the donations - would you like me to put together this book? I knew Freddy only as an admirer of his work, but given the impact this man has had on our hobby as a whole, I know I'm not alone in feeling a great loss and wanting to help out.

These are some great ideas guys. I really like the collage of his builds idea. As said, maybe people who knew him outside of the hobby, knew that he was into this, but have never really seen his skills.

Brian, I live in Ireland, so there is pretty much nothing I can do to help out, sorry, but I have made a donation to your Paypal account. Hope it helps and fair play to you for organising this.

Hi Brian,
Paypal sent, sorry for the delay. Paypal account hadn't been used in awhile and needed updating so my wife updated it and forgot to tell me she changed the log in ID:confused:. Hope you got it, let me know if you didn't.

I had no idea that Freddy had passed away until I saw this section late last night. It is very sad news. Are you still looking for donations?
