OMG , I was just going on the computer to notify Fred of Nina D Buxton’s passing today, only to find Fred had passed almost a yr to the day,ago. I’m so sad surrounding this, I met Fred when I was about 17 I’m 64 now. He was a true character, even then. Dressed in a cowboy hat painting oil paintings usually with Mt Rainer, and cowboy scenery. To his family I’m sure you miss him, as do I, God has now a couple great artists now together again.
