Frederick Merle Frye passed away in his home, from a weak heart, on July 09, 2025. Fred was a strong-willed man that lived life his own way and by his own rules, always. Fred was also a very giving, and loving person willing to help everyone, and anyone. Fred served his country in the United States Army and was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and brother. He is survived by his wife, of 56 years, Eva, his son William, his grandson Zachary, his sister Donna Jean, and his brother Randall. Thank you, Fred, for everything you gave to this country and to your family. You will be forever in our thoughts, in our hearts, and forever loved. Fred will be cremated and interred at Riverside National Cemetery on August 4, 2025 at 09:45 am. The family is requesting that any flowers be sent directly to the cemetery instead of his home.
