Frederick was born on November 16, 1977 in Albany, NY. He attended Keene schools and went to the University of Oregon.
He later attended the Sierra Academy of Aeronautics in California where he received his commercial pilot license in 2001. Shortly after, he suffered a traumatic brain injury in an accident. His life from that point on was filled with on-going challenges. His perseverance was great as he faced each and every set back. His love for music, especially Phish, his love/hate relationship with the Boston Red Sox, and his love of flying continued throughout his life. More importantly, deep down inside he remained the wonderful “Fred” that we all loved.
He is survived by his parents and his sisters, Jocelyn Beiswenger (Jason) and Isabel Lane; his nephew Bennett Beiswenger; his stepfather, Kendall Lane, who provided unwavering support throughout Frederick’s later life, especially after his accident; and the best friend anyone could have, Matt Thomas.
The family would like to thank Comfort Keepers for the excellent care they provided to Frederick.
There will be no service or calling hours.
Donations in Frederick’s memory can be made to Monadnock Family Services, 64 Main Street, Keene, NH 03431.
