He's probably going to kick my ass for making this widely known but the fact remains that Saturday, January 30th, 2016 is Fred's 80th birthday. Those of you who are regular volunteers and know Fred well will need no introduction. For the rest of you; Fred is one of the stalwarts of the organization. He is our biggest cheerleader, probably more responsible for new volunteers than anyone else. He is often referred to as the "Energizer Bunny" as his enthusiasm and energy are legendary. I used to joke that I hoped I would have his energy when I was his age but the fact is that I don't , nor do most of the rest of us, have it now. His skills and dedication are admirable in and of themselves but what endears him to all of us, me especially, is the way he conducts himself with self effacing good humor, always. So please join me in wishing the happiest of birthdays to Fred.
