Home feeling grateful for abundant birthday LOVE!
Fred turned 77 on the Fourth of July and was overwhelmed with loving wishes from family, friends and fans near and far. He celebrated quietly at home with a little barbecue — one of his favorite things — and is sending love and gratitude to all who reached out for his special day. Below is a sampling of wishes on facebook, but many, many, many more came though on that platform and by text, phone, email and more. To all, he says THANK YOU!!
