We have traveled many times to Brownsville, Texas. We saw the water tower many times with Freddy's picture. Today Thursday September 20, 2012 we attempted to find a museum or something about Freddie in San Benito. We stopped a couple of places inquiring if there was any home or museum of Freddy Fender in town. We never got much information, no one seemed to know where anyting was really located. Wish there had been signs indicating where the community center was located. We came back to the condo and looked up information on Freddie Fender. Maybe next year we can try again.

Friends used to call my Dad, Freddy Fender back in the 70s. His name was Alfredo and he resembled Freddy. We went to see him sing at an amusement park. People came up to my Dad and asked for autographs.

Still listening to Freddy,s music most nights, puts me to sleep. His voice was so mellow. Love it! Re purchased most of the cd,s just wore out the others. My sincere best to his family.

A few days ago, I was reminded of the music of Freddy Fender -- his music that I hadn't heard for years and years. Thanks to YouTube, I found some videos of his performances. What a wonderful, wonderful musician! The treasure of his music, as well as his memory, lives on.

Happy Father's Day my sweet loving Dad. You knew how to talk to me--not at me.
You trusted me and believed in me when no one else did.
You loved me unconditionally no question or apologies needed.
You put me first before yourself after you totally trusted in higher power.
You didn't go to church every sunday but you definetely talked the talk and walked the walk.
You didn't pretend to be good by going to church and judge others. You were good...period.
You were unselfish and I didn't have to bow down to you to let you know you were B.O.S.S. BOSS!
You knew how to be a friend and mostly a loving person and father.
It was easy to respect you because you respected me first as a human being and daughter.
I will never forget that gift and will cherish you until I die...
Happy Father's Day, and everyday.
Tu Hija,
Tomasa

To all, I played in a band, Saskwa Oklahoma Show Band. We went on tour as Freddys back up band and learned his music. Played several venues in California with him. Got to know him pretty well,always enjoyed sitting with him in his motel room after the gigs. Sat and played songs for hours!! Today I ran across a sombrero he signed, which I used in our shows!! Just had to share. Freddy will always be remembered!!!!!

At low times in my life Freddy Fender music got me through. He will never know how much he has meant to so many.

Just a quick note to apologize for mis-spelling Freddy's first name. Don't know why I did that...

I was over to Wal-Mart getting a few groceries today and browsed through the music section when I spotted the Best of Freddie Fender CD. I have a collection of 50s, 60s & 70s music with about 8,000 titles. Freddie is among them but I had long since misplaced this album. Nice to have it back. I am a volunteer dj/announcer with the Mohawk community radio station KWE 105.9 FM on Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory just outside of Belleville. I do a show called, "The Saturday Afternoon Rock & Roll Oldies Show. You can bet, Freddie has always been on my playlist and surprisingly enough, many listeners would call in requesting his tunes. I always told them when they did, that they had great taste in music. Personally, Freddie has always been one of my favourites ever since I heard "Before The Next Teardrop Falls." It also has a very special meaning for me as well. That, I'll keep to myself. I know, wherever good music is, Freddie will always be a part of it. I would like to thank him for being a part of some of the greatest memories of my life. Freddie....you will ALWAYS be on my playlist.
I am,
Clive "O" - "Tyendinaga's Cutest Little Fat Kid." By the way, Bellevile is only 2 hours east of Toronto.

I am a music teacher in a remote west Texas town.My lesson today was about the contributions of Mexican Americans to our musical culture in the USA. I am grateful to El Bebop Kid. I saw pride in the eyes of my students and perhaps enough daring to dream big and make those dreams a reality one day. Thank you for blazing a trail, Mr. Huerta. I feel certain that you will watch over them and softly sing into their ears to inspire them....

Just found this page and reading through some of the beautiful eulogies and messages. Yes Freddy your music will live on forever in our hearts and minds. I remember when "Wasted Days and Wasted Nights " was a top hit on the charts ... loved it and still do but the 1 I love the most is "Before the Next Teardrop Falls" I attempt to sing it now and again but you did it BEST! R.I.P. No more pain and sorrow
