Fred was a US Navy veteran, serving from 1954-1962, notably aboard the USS Casa Grande when crossing the Arctic Circle. He was a lifetime member of Disabled American Veterans and remained proud to serve and support his country and fellow veterans. After leaving the military, Fred founded the well-known Freddies Barber Shop in East Hanover, NJ, and had been a fixture and source of friendship in the community and surrounding towns for over 50 years. He was an ardent supporter of state and local police charities, as well as local Little Leagues to inspire children with a passion for baseball.
