My thoughts are with Freddy's family. I pray they are touched and blessed by the Almighty. May you rest in peace. Thanks for the decades of music. I'll never forget the old 8 track my family had, "Before the Next Tear Drop Falls".

I remember having listening to Freddy for the first time, I fell in love with his music. Later I found out my grandpqrents, and parents listened to him. I remember thinking we can't like the same music. But everytime I listen to his songs my heart melts. In 2007 when I get married I plan on dancing with my father to "Before the Next teardrop falls".

I'M SORRY IF I CONTINUE TO SIGN THE GUESSBOOK, BUT IT IS JUST SO SAD AND IT'S HARD FOR ME TO COMPREHEND THE FACT THAT FREDDY IS'NT HERE PHYSICALLY. BUT HE WILL ALWAYS LIVE IN MY HEART FOREVER.
GOD BLESS HIS FAMILY.

I have fond memories of my Grandfather listening and singing Freddy's songs, Although we will greatly miss him, ALL of our dearly departed Tejanos are rejoicing and singing with Freddy now...
Thanks for your musical genious talent!

You will be missed all over the world.God be with your family.

You will be missed by many. Thank you for the great music!

He was a great singer and will be missed by all his fans. God be with his family.

I LOVED HIS MUSIC AND I ALWAYS WILL, YOU WILL BE MISSED DEARLY I WILL CONTINUE TO BUY HIS MUSIC AND LISTEN TO HIM ON THE RADIO TOO, A GREAT SINGER IS GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN,
PRAYERS GOES OUT TO THE FAMILY

WE LOVE YOU FREDDY YOU PUT YOUR HEART INTO YOUR MUSIC THAT'S WHY YOUR SO GREAT.

Freddy,
I was blessed to meet you in 1989
in Houston, one rainy morning. We had breakfast together and that day changed my life. I was already a big fan, but that day, you became a friend. You will never know how much you meant to me and to the people that you touched in your life. You encouraged me to keep on playing music and to never give up my dreams. I've never forgotten that advice. We will all miss you, but now God needs another angel and I KNOW that I will see you again someday ! Thank-you amigo, for everything.

I was saddened to hear of Freddy's passing. I remember growing up listening to my grandfather play his records. When my grandfather passed several years ago I listened to Freddy's music to bring back the good memories. Freddy will no doubt be remembered as one of the greatest voices of all time, we will miss him.

My dear friend you will be missed greatly by everyone in our family. I cherish the wonderful times we had remembering "the good old days". Your passing has left a hole in our lives.
May the Lord hold you close to him and keep you comforted.

I love you my dear friend and will miss you greatly, with great sadness I say goodbye to you on this earthly plain.

Like Sonia A, I grew up listening to Freddy Fender's songs as everyone was drunk but his songs never reminded me of bad memories, only of a most awesome and distinct voice that will live on forever no matter where the world ends up! God Bless and Keep Freddy Fender! To his family and friends, your lives were only blessed and enriched for a brief moment and you are better for having him in your lives. As it is said, "God only takes the Best!" Rest in Peace

The world has lost a wonderful man. We shall All Miss You Freddy. But, Your Music will live On and On. For that, We Thank You!

Goodbye Freddy, May you rest eternally in peace.

My heartfelt condolenses to the Huerta family for as I was told by my mother we were 2nd or 3rd degree cousins,My mother's maiden name was Alvina Cano Cuevas and so the story goes Valdemar's mother and mine were cousins As I was told he was born in Uvalde or Carrizo Springs Texas, I was born in Runge Texas.
The first song I remember, and I could be wrong, sung by Freddie was (Since I Met You Baby) around the late 50's. I met Freddie after his jail time in Santa Rosa Texas at Bea's bar in the Rio grande valley, I think he was going to sing at La Villita dance hall in San Benito Texas.
That made my day and the rest of my life since I knew a famous relative.
Without knowing Freddie was kin on a trip from southern Ca. to Portland Oregon my youngest daughter said daddy I want to listen to freddie.s songs all the way to Portland.
Goodby Cuz (primo) See you and hope to sing with you in the afterlife.
