My wife and I drove to Tunica, Mississippi three seperate times to hear Freddy in Ballys Casino. Twice we were very well rewarded for the trip. We lisented to the man with the angelic voice and great sense of humor. Once we were disappointed because Freddy was ill.
Out of all the concerts we have seen there over the years, Freddy ranked right up at the top. He seemed to be a fine man. We sorry for your loss as well as the whole musical community.

I love all songs of Freddy Fender.
Thanks for good site.

Freddy will also always lives further in my heart and every time i play his music. The song : Before the next teardrops falls helped me through my divorcement and now is still a song i play a lot to find my strenght back. So he will always live in my heart to give me strenght to go on.
Thank you for the music Freddy and thank you for creating this website so fans can still honour him and write about him.

I am a radio personality in Cincinnati Ohio, and got a sneek peek a the new Billy Bob Thornton movie "The Astronaut Farmer."
In the movie the producers did a great job in Honoring the memory of "when the next tear drop falls" by Freddie Fender with a touching slow-dance sequence with the lead actors. Great use of a great song you don't hear that much on the radio anymore. Hearing that song in a movie like that, was a great way to keep Baltamar's influince around for generations to come..
Freddie was a good man.

I just want to say that Freddy still lives in my heart and soul.
As a young boy, I remember watching him and my uncles practice and play at times at our home. They played in the garage on Acacia Lake. Somtime between the late 60's early 70's.

For his influence on me. Our band is dedicating our first album to Freddy my Uncle Ben, Johnny and my dad Bule.

Hope all is well.

Grew up listening to Freddy's music, some of the first songs I learned to play on the guitar were Freddy's songs.

We love you Freddy!

I love all the music and songs of Mr. Freddy Fender. I'm not from this country but when I joined the U.S.Army and the song Wasted Day and Wasted Night I love so dearly. May God Bless the soul of Mr. Freddy Fender.
Maraming Salamat in Tagalog Language means Thank You Very Much.

I am a guitarist and entertainer in Naples, Fl. I have been doing Freddy's songs for a very long time. Everytime I sing his songs I always get a big round of applause. It makes so proud to be known as the "Freddy Fender of Naples. He really the best of the best. I'll sure you my amigo.

I am so sorry that Freddy has left us. I have loved his singing for 35 years. I was playing one of his cd's on the computer and went to his website and found out that he had died. His leaving has left a empty spot for millions of us FF lovers. What a guy!! What great music!!

Dear Family
I just played one of my DVD's from Freddy and it's hard to believe he is not with us anymore
take care and love from Holland

I was reading Mrs. Huertas words. How Freddy never got tired of people and would leave a little bit of himself after someone talked to him. It is so true, he left me with a good feeling that I had met someone very genuine and made me feel I was important to him.
Vangie, Roses are red my love, violets are blue, sugar is sweet my love, but not as sweet as you. Freddy gave me a little bit of himself and I believe he would sing you a song of love. Happy Valentines Day.

I just bought a cd of FF and it reminds me so much of going to the laundrymat as a boy in the 70s and playing pinball with my uncle and on the jukebox there was always a FF song to play, and it is a good memory -- the kind you wish your kids could have . . .

when i was a little girl my dad would say that him and Freddie were cousins but he was meaning that becuz they were both from Texas and when you find a Texan here in Cal. you say that there your "primos" So for a long time well in to my early 20 i always thought that Freddie was part of my family. Till about 3 years a go when my Dad said that it was just becuz they were from Texas that why he called him his cousins. But from that day on i still feelt that he was part of my family. So last night when i was wathing the Grammys and it came on saying that Freddie had passed i feelt that i lost an part of my family. But i thanks God for having him in my life with his songs that my dad would sing to me "befor the next tear drop falls" is one of my fav. This song is the song that me and my dad are going to dance to at my wedding. But thank you for all your years in our life Freddie you will be missed.

love always
Nora Nu?ez and my dad Daivd Nu?ez

I loved his music and angelic voice. My thoughts and prayers are with Freddy and his loving family...

Just learnt last night that Freddy had passed. I got to meet him about 2 years ago at a camping rally where he was the guest singer, and what a beautiful person. His music will be with us forever.

I sit here watching the 2007 Grammy Awards and find out Freddy had passed. I couldn't believe it, I just started crying and I cry as I write. I have only seen him once with my Mother at Sig Flags Magic Mountain in Californa. I was a little girl and it was my first concert. Ever since then I have loved his music..all I can say is he is now with my Mom singing with the angels.

He is missed
God Bless You and Your Family
