I'm very sorry to see this. Fred was 0ne of my first DX QSOs, and my 
first LU. I got to chat with him at Visalia.

As LU5HFI he was attacked by terrorists and came within inches of passing away. Many of us had the opportunity to chat with Fred in Visalia.  He came every year.  He is a giant of contesters. 73, Kurt W6PH
