Thanks, Mike Frett

Fred's work's being available is something that I have wondered about many times, since the 1st sketch drawn for at the 10 yr.(?) reunion. I had the fortune of running into Fred at a blues bar in Denver sometime in the mid 70's(????) That decade is one long year to me! :-) Anyway, I think maybe R. Embach was with him? At the reunion his death was announced, I was shocked. He was a really good drummer, too. AND, I believe self taught... Great sense of humor, too!!

Fred was one of my best friends. He was a thoughtful and creative person. He was the godfather to my son, Tom. He and Mike Frett were ushers at my wedding in 1970. Fred had just gotten back from on trip to Colorado in the Refrigerator (white Jeep). I think of him from time to time. He will always be one of my favorite people.

Any chance that Fred's works can be on display for sale at the BarnDance? Let's buy it out !

Anyone who wants to see Fred's work can go to Jim Roden's Framery in Ridgefield. Many of Fred's works are large, so settting up a gallery would be difficult to do. Maybe Jim Roden and Mike Frett would like to have a gallery showing on Saturday before the dance. Jim's shop is in Ridgefield between CL and Woodstock, so it would be an easy stop. Think about it.

I'd love a gallery of Fred's works to be displayed.  I'm going to be up on Thursday and will be out Ridgefield way, so one way or another, I'm going to make an attempt to see his stuff...  I hope classmates respond to the availability of these, while in town that weekend!!

Many classmates have visited Fred Johnson's art work at Roden's. Some paintings are still available at very reasonable prices. Contact Mike Frett about purchasing one or more.
