A unique man with a unique voice, music, message who led a unique life. His songs stir my emotions now just as they did when I first heard them years ago. Go with God, Rest in Peace. We will miss You but, we will still always have Your music. Thanks.

I send our heartfelt condolences to Freddy Fenders family

My friends in The Dragons payed respect to you almost every show they did! Alas, both are gone now and I'm sad! Thanks for your talent and dedication, but most importantly what you brought to people's lives...

There were no Wasted Days Or Wasted Nights...

Just this Saturday, we were being entertained by someone singing Freddy Fender's song at my grandparents' 60th anniversary party. I was shocked to hear the news this morning.

Thank you, Freddy, for providing music that I linked to childhood memories of my father (who died in 1981) singing, "Wasted days and wasted nights, how I left for YOUR BEHIND". He was an immigrant from Mexico, and tried to improve his English through your music!

I am so sorry for your lose. Freddy was a great man. I have know him for a long time...His brother Connie and his wife Maria babyset me for years and are very good friends of my family..May the lord be with the whole family right now thru your time of loss...He will always be watching over you from heaven..God bless you.

The first time I heard Freddy's music my heart sang with joy I asked my daddy who was singing the pretty music? my daddy said "It's the great Freddy Fender,a Mexican-American singer just like you.I said "Wow,he sing's really good,can we get one of his cd's?"the very next week when I came home from school,I saw a package and so I opened the package and there it was!The cd I wanted.You see I was ten at the time and my friends listened to "RAP" but I prefer "old school music" but some rap I like. So go Freddy,go with "GOD" or as we say in Mexico "vaya con DIOS."

My family enjoyed Freddy Fender's many albumns over the years. I was thrilled to see him perform at the Jazz Festival in Mendocino a few years back. My condolensces to Freddy's family for their loss. Via con dios, Freddy!

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!

From the first time His hair kept brushing the back of my head at The Iron Skillet restaurant in El Paso, Tx in 1975 I have been a fan.. My condolences to his family.. Our last teardrops have not fallen. You are deeply missed.

REST IN PEACE
GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY
from YOUR EXTENDED FAMILY
