Via con Dios, Mr. Fender. You were a real pioneer and a person who broke down barriers for others who have come after you. I remember playing your songs in my parents' band when I was in High School. God Bless you.

I feel greatly saddened by the death of Freddy Fender. He was one of my all time favorite musicians. Wasted Days and Wasted Nights was the first song I ever learned. I was around 3 years old and remember singing that song when my Dad would take me to the local truck stop. Which was the only restaurant in town. Every time I hear his music I think about my Dad. My father and I got to see Freddy perform in Mississippi a few years ago. I noticed a bill board that said he was performing that weekend. I called my Dad & he drove in from Tampa, Florida and I drove in from New Orleans, Louisiana. I danced with my Dad and it will always be one of my favorite memories. God bless the family!! My heart goes out to each of you. Blessings!!!

I remember dancing to your muic at a show you put on in San Diego. The crowd was overwhelmed with your performance. You will brighten heaven with your music.

I'll miss you and your music.may god bless your family at this time.
LOVE YA MAN

Freddy's music is the first I can remember hearing as a child. My mother, father, and grandparents were fans before I was born. Though, I wasn't a fan to begin with, as I grew older, I began to very much enjoy the memories associated with the music. My family and I deeply regret his passing, and send our condolences to the family and memory of Mr. Fender.

As a little Cuban girl in NYC, it was wonderful to hear a Latino Cross Over to the American Radio Station. You have demonstrated that we are productive and positive people in a time that it was very new to other cultures. You have made us proud! May God Keep You in His Loving Arms, and Bless Your Family. Que Dios Te Bendiga!
With love, Eve.

Thank you for all the wonderful songs. You will live on forever through your music.

I want to send my condolences to the family,I grew up listening to Freddy Fender Music,will always be remembered as one of my top most favorite singers.

Sorry to hear of Freddy's passing, I loved his songs, always brought back good memories for me. God bless his family in this time of sorrow.

You will be greatly missed here on earth, but taken on to meet many more who adore you so much. To the family my prayers are with you. May God bless you and give you strength and peace in your time of loss. I will also cherish your works.

Tina

From Belgium

Good-Bye fellow compadre, may God bless you in your journey to eternal paradise. Thank you for all you did for country music, your family, friends, fans, your community, the Rio Grande Valley, and the hispanic people. You will be deeply missed. My heart and prayers go out to your family and friends on this day that we mourn our loss of a legend. Thanks for everything you have been an inspiration to us all. This is the time that "the last teardrop falls". Love David Tefertiller

Salude. thanks for the memories. God bless ur family & let the music compsed rain from the heavens

I have always liked Freddy's music and while I was stationed in Germany he played at the NCO club and my wife and I got to meet him and hear him play. It was a real treat. May he rest in peace and I will keep him and his family in my prayers.

I have always been a fan, and play Freddy Fender music, and the Texas Tornados music in my Spanish class. I sing karaoke and one of my most requested songs is BEFORE THE NEXT TEARDROP... I feel as if I have lost a dear friend, though we never met. Rest in Peace, and tell Doug Sahm hello. Sing pretty for God, and all those who have gone before.

I have listen to the wonderful songs and music of Freddy since I was about 6 or 7 years of age. I had a dear friend named Jimmy, that got me hooked on him. See Jimmy was more than just a friend, he was like my brother. In the early to mid 80's, Jimmy was shot and died a few hours later. Listen to Freddy Fender songs make me feel as if he is still here with me. I am so sorry for the families loss, and he will be missed very much. My prayers go out to the families and close friends.

I'll Always remeber the gig we did together when we were touring in Frankfurt Germany. Sharing a dressing room with you turned out to be great fun and sharing the stage was even better. Vaya Con Dios Amigo.

You will be missed Freddy my DAD& MOM brought me up with your songs. They have a lot of meaning to them.but we will miss you here. But know you can go home and sing your song in heven.
