Fred was my shop lead for a while in VF-142 in 1989-91. He was a great guy to work for, and with. Very sorry to hear about his passing.

I remember him when he was cousin Ricky with a silly grin and an infectious chuckle. My condolences to the family.

What our families say...

In my opinion, there is no better facility in Virginia than Altmeyer Funeral Homes. Not only was Chris Sisler there to hold my hand every step of the way, his family members were holding the door on the day of the funeral to help and encourage me. I will never forget their grace. He led me and my family through the process as a personal friend and neighbor, and as the ultimate professional.
