Growing up in Harlingen, Tx (7 miles north of San Benito), I remember hearing my mother singing Freddy Fender's songs. She was one of his biggest fans. My thoughts and prayers are with Freddy's family. I always associate him with home and pleasant memories.

We will miss you and the beautiful music you created. I have been a devoted fan ever since I was a child...thanks to mom and dad! Your music brings back so many happy memories of growing up in San Francisco. I love you and will miss you with all my heart.

Freddy was a wonderful performer as well as a great person. He performed twice at our casino....Northern Lights Casino. My heart and prayer go out to Vangie and your family.

Vaya con dios mi amigo.

Freddy will be missed greatly.

God bless The Huerta family during this time of sorrow.

I will always remember a story I read about told by Doug Sahm on how back in the day, he and Freddy would sit at Commanche Park with a couple of beers to watch the baseball games. I know the park well- the sad news really hits home. They both will surely be missed. Freddy will always be the best!

I've heard Freddy as a child from my Dad listening to his hits in the 70's and So I grew enjoying his music. My childern also love his music. I have all of his records, tapes, 8 tracks and CD's. I saw Freddy in Santa Fe, Toppenish, WA and Tacoma WA. I loved each show. I'll miss his music that touched all people.

I grew up listening to Freddy Fender. He was the best singer and the best songs. The whole world miss him. See you in heaven Freddy.

We will miss Freddy and his music. He brought so much to the music world. I just purchased one of his CD's just a week ago. I want to send my condolences to his family and to let them know that Freddy will be greatly missed. Thank you for letting us hear and enjoy his music.

WE LOVE YOU FREDDY!

sorry to hear about Freddie's, passing . i heard of his passing at a Clint Black concert 10/15/06. i saw Freddie at The EmeraldQueen casino concert earlier this year and loved it i first heard Freddie sing Wasted Days and Wasted nights back in 72 and i have loved his music since. God Bless his Family

I'm so saddened by this lose. and my hart goes out to all Freddy family and friends. I would like to share a store about a time while cleaning house and playing Freddy's 8 track tape (yes 8 track) I had the stereo as loud as it would go. And with 8 tracks remeber they did stop on their own you had to eject them. the electric went out and didn't come back on before my family and I went to Phoenix for the weekend. that was Fri. after noon, we arrived back home on Sunday evening and when we got out of the car all we could here was Freddy Fender singing. Are poor neighbors had listened to Freddy Fender all week end. The electric had come back on right after we had left. and at the time we were living in a small trailer park in Hillside Arizona and they had no way to turn Freddy off. I Still have that old 8 Track. I did get to see Freddy play in Phoeinx at the state fair. a lot of good memories built around all his great music. He will GREATLY be missed.

Deepest sympathies to Freddy's family and friends. Thanks to all of you for sharing your Baldemar with the world, it could not have been easy all the time. Nobody blazed the trail like Freddy and we are so grateful for his gifts to the world. Vaya con Dios y todos los santos.

I grew up listening to the music of Freddy Fender thanks to mt Dad. The first time I heard the songs was from my Dad singing them. I loved the albums when I was a kid and always drew inspiration from the soul and passion with which Freddy sang his tales of heartache. Thank you for such a rich treasure of not only the music, but also the life of triumph over adversity that you lived. I love you Freddy! RIP, hermano!

I was shocked to hear about Freddy's passing. I listened to one of his album with a friend reminiscing. Wonderful songs with a great message. Te amaremos para siempre amigo. Vaya con Dios!
