He was predeceased by his parents. Fred started his career as a machinist with Canadian National Railway. He soon after, realized he wanted to pursue his dream of opening his own business. That dream became reality in 1968 when he established Toys for Big Boys Ltd., where he remained President. In his most recent years of semi-retirement, he loved spending time at his old farmhouse at Long Creek, and his camp in Elgin. One of his favorite pastimes was touring his properties on his ATV or Mule. He also enjoyed restoring his old tractors and using them to work on his properties. He was an avid outdoorsman and enjoyed all that went with it; he especially loved gathering with the boys at the Shepody for moose season. He had a great love and respect for animals, big and small. Fred was founder of the Moncton Chapter of the Harley Owners Group (HOG) and was also a long time member of the Elks Club. He was a member of many associations including; the Albert County Hunters Assoc., Ducks Unlimited, Havelock Sportsman Club, Lake Petiticodiac Preservation Association (LPPA) and he sat on many committees pertaining to Toys for Big Boys.
