How truly sad it is that a true Mexican-American singing legend has died and my children will never ever see the likes of him as they grow up. My father is and always will be a true Freddy Fender fan and my siblings and I can recall hearing my dad blast Freddy Fender throughtout the house on the weekends and while we were driving with him in the car. Not to mention "Before the Next Teardrop Falls" was the first song my dad played for my mom over 30 years ago! He will be truly missed yet his music will live on for generations to come! Vaya con Dios Freddy-we will miss you so!
