He was a proud, kind man who loved his family very much. Fred was born in Steubenville, OH, and later moved first to Salem, OH, with his parents and then to Fairfield Township, Columbiana Co, OH. He graduated from the Fairfield High School and went to work at the Berted Foundry of the National Rubber Machinery Company (NRM) plant in Columbiana, OH. Eventually he worked his way to become a "moulder" - a person who hand built the molds in which the major iron components of the tire presses were cast. Except for his wartime service, he worked for NRM until he retired in 1998. Fred met Betty at the local roller skating rink and they married shortly after she graduated high school. Money was tight and it was a courthouse wedding with only his mother and her father attending. There were no photos but they had a lovely reception with gifts from many friends and family. They lived with Fred's family for the first couple of years. Fred joined the Air Force in 1943. He was trained as an aircraft mechanic at Barksdale Air Base in Shreveport, LA and Betty was able to join him there during his training. Upon completion of training, his unit was scheduled for deployment overseas. However, he was hospitalized when his unit deployed and upon his recovery was declared a truck driver and remained at Barksdale as such. When Betty became pregnant with their first child she returned to Columbiana, OH, and rented a home. After Fred was released in 1946 he returned to foundry work as a Molder at NRM in Columbiana and stayed with them for a total of 41 years. When Fred's father died in 1949 he and his family moved in with his mother in Fairfield Township (just outside of Columbiana), OH. They stayed in that home for the rest of their lives. Fred was a strong man who was very proud of his family and his military service. He put in a huge garden every year and he and Betty canned many, many jars of various vegetables. He was active in the local VFW and Eagles Club. He and Betty enjoyed dancing, parties, picnics, and holiday get-togethers with family and friends. They also enjoyed family vacations in Florida. Fred nursed Betty though her death from cancer and she was able to die at home. Fred continued living in the same house. He died from an unexpected massive heart attack in the parking lot of a local grocery store on Father’s Day in 1998. Updated 8/24/2015 - ACJ
