Dear Carol, So sorry to hear about Fred's passing. He certainly will be missed. I would have my windows open and I would hear someone whistling and it would be Fred on his way to his sisters house and as he passed he would yell out "GOOD MORNING TONI" May he rest in peace.

My condolences to the Corcione family. Fred trained me on a route when I first started with Entenmann's 33 years ago. Fred was always fun to work with. Rest in Peace, Fred

Please accept my heartfelt condolences on the passing of Fred. I had worked alongside with Fred at Entenmann's for a number of years. I certainly enjoyed the pleasure of his company. There was rarely a dull moment when Fred was around. He was a such caring and giving person. Just thinking of him brings a smile to my face. He will sorely be missed by all who knew him. May God bless him and grant him eternal peace.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

It was always a good morning at the Ocean Township pool when we saw Freddy walking in with an armful of Entenmann's boxes. It meant Bill might let us out a little early, (because he would rather laugh it up with Freddy than coach us) and that we would get something sweet to eat as we dried off. Rest in Peace, Fast Freddie! Our thoughts are with your family, From: Mike Halfacre and CJAC 1980-1988
