My Deepest Sympaty's for your really great loss. When i was a small child i got to see Freddy perform at the Wheeling Jamboree in Wheeling, WV. And i will never forget that performance because he was sweating so dramatically and he was singing on stage Untill the Last Teardrop Falls and a woman from the Audience threw her Hanky up to him so he could wipe his sweat off and he did but then he threw the hanky back to the woman and she caught it and then Fainted!Lol.(True Story)It hopefully brings a smile to all. For a man such as Freddy Fender would want everyone to remember him for what he was and that is One Hell of a Great Entertainer!
God Bless You!
