Dad, I love you so much! I can't thank God enough for the most wonderful gift he has given me in my life, when he gave me you! I have always been so proud to have you as my dad. You were always putting Mom, Terri, Robbie and I first. Working long hours, with little sleep, coming to every school event, baseball game, coaching, taking us to church on Sundays, and always taking us on a family vacation. I never felt like we were a burden to you, even during the "tough teen years of my life were in full swing. You loved us unconditionally. I want everyone to know that you fought this horrible disease "Cancer" with hope, courage and a strength that I have not ever seen anyone fight before. You like you have always done put Mom first always making sure she was alright even when you were in so much pain. And by the grace of God taking that last camping trip to the ocean with us one last time even though again you were tired and hurting. So Thank you Dad, for being my Dad and for loving me as your daughter.  I know that when you went to heaven, and met face to face with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, he said to you "Well done good and faithful servant". I love you!

My condolences to you during this sad time. Fred was a wonderful husband, father, and grandfather. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

I know they say time heals and I'm sure it does but it sure hasn't started getting any easier yet. Every memory I have,picture I see  or story I hear still brings a long lasting tear to my eye. You did it right with your time here.Grandpa you are  truly the best man I've ever known.

Fred you were not only a wonderful friend but God father to our son. We have so many memories of our travels together. You will always have a special place in our hearts. Your smiling face will be missed by many. Not good-bye my friend but until we meet again. Doug, Connie and Andrew Secord

We had the privilege of living next door to Fred for 14 years. I would refer to him as perfect neighbor Freddy and boy was he! Always ready to lend a hand, or let you bend his ear, and always down for a cold beer and a few trucking stories. You will be missed so much Freddy! Much love to the Theis family! 

 Fred. Im going to miss you  stopping by my counter each month to say hello when you came to the union hall! Your smile lit up the entire office! RIP Dear Brother! 

My dear brother, Fred.   Roses are Red, Violets are Blue, God could not have given me a better brother than you. Since 2006, we've endured a lot together, we became closer as brother and sister. I love and miss you so very much. Rest peacefully in God's Arm's.

Jennifer and I were deeply saddened to hear of Fred's passing. I so enjoyed visiting with him at Christmas time and listening to his funny stories. He always had a smile and was of the warmest people I've known. Again, our thoughts and prayers are with Arlene, Jim, Diane and the whole Theis family. He will truly be missed.

My deepest sympathy in your time of sorrow - Arlene, Uncle Bernard and family. Fred was a wonderful person we all loved. You are all in my prayers and my heart forever.

Fred constantly had a story to make you laugh and there if you needed someone . Was a man I'm honored to call my friend, as the years went by your love for him grew.  The family has my condolences and love.

Betty

Dad, you were an amazing Father. you were always there to lend a hand when I needed something whether it was a project, or just guidance you never said no. You always put others first, and never complained. Now that your gone I will be lost just knowing that I wont be able to talk to you anymore, I know we never said it to each other much over the years, but I love you. Just know that you raised a great family, and we will live on in your memory. You will never be forgotten, and like I said before we will see each other again someday, so you better have a cold brew waiting. Love you and miss you tons already.

A loving grandfather ripped from this world too soon, though not before he left a mark in all of our hearts. I miss and love you.
