Hello all,
Just confirmed the rumor we had been hearing all morning. I called Bill Yoder the source that gave the information to some radio folks this morning. After fighting a rare form of pneumonia and being in a coma for 6 weeks the family decided to let him go. At this time no funeral plans have been confirmed. For those of us that love outdoor television in this great state Fred was an icon. We may not have always agreed with him, but you never questioned his passion. If it was not for guys like Fred, I wouldn't have the job I do. He had an outstanding show for many years. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
