I so enjoyed working with Friggy (as I called him, he called me Melon). He was such a wonderful and enjoyable person, as was his wife Kathy. I continued to see and visit with him over the years at many retirement lunches. Another wonderful Pipeliner gone to rest.

Friggy and his wife Kathy were kind loving folks. I car pooled with him and Steve Newcomer from Eagle RIver for some time and just loved to be in his company. He was so positive, so full of energy, so considerate, so helpful, so knowledgeable....just loved that man.

For some reason I was thinking about Warren. He was a breath of fresh air, always cheerful and relaxed. His shop was always in order, and always provided good service with a smile. Well done, Warren.
