wij houden van je freddy en je muziek
je was een grote ster hier in holland overal draaiden ze je muziek
we zullen je niet vergeten
je bent altyd in onze hart
rust zacht
roses are red my love

i remember i first heard freddy fender's before the next teardrop falls and wasted days , at the caballo blanco rest . on franklin blvd. in sacramento ca.in those table juke boxes,those were the days freddy ruled the latin music world as well as the country music scene. i worked til 3 am on weekends went to school on week days, played my guitar every chance i had.i tell you i must have heard his songs at least 15 times a night at that rest, and i loved each time they played his songs . i played guitar with many friends ,like manuel avalos and los uniques,the sons of soul, popcorn,mg and the metallics,little cesear band , los ritmo 7 , , salt lick # 39 ,the snake river outlaws, sammy acuna and the mellomatics,i met merle haggard,mel tillis, and craig einhorn of ugene or , he plays with mason williams .. anyway i've never met anyone as nice as freddie fender was to me , he was totally down to earth and in my book i will always be his biggest fan in baker city oregon.peace to you freddy ,para siempre manny gutierrez

Dear family of Freddy,I knew Freddy when he stayed in a trailor in SLidell,but when his bus crashed on the I-10 that was a very tough day for everyone.I had know freinds back then and Freddy took me in like a baby and taught me a lot.I just want you to know he touched so many people through his music but he touched me through his heart. God bless and you are in my prayes.

May God bless you all in a time like this.

I wish i could see the angels faces when they hear your sweet voice sing God bless you freddy and your family go to heven singing and look for the father and the son amen and god bless

man ,it's so hard to accept the fact that we no longer will be able to see freddy fender in concert or knowing he has gone to that great stage in the sky.one door closes and another opens as i been told.in translation the stage here on earth has closed for freddy's shows,but heavens doors have opened for freddy forever. give em a good show freddy! manny gutierrez

Wow I can not believe we have lost a man such as a wonderful spirit as Freddies alot of people such as myself sang to his music and when he sang spanish we may not have understood what he was singing but in my heart I do know it build a bridge between the redneck country community and those of the hispanic community.

God bless you Freddy Fender and rest in peace and keep on singing because when I get to heaven I want a front row seat at your concert in the sky.

i will miss u so much freddy, we love u and your music will live on.

since I have been little my mama would make me listen to freddy finder, and I have grown to love it, she puts it on and we all sing and dance, and try to sing along

I only just heard and am deeply saddened. It was only this Saturday that my band decided to play 'Wasted Days And Wasted Nights' and 'Before The Next Teardrop Falls' on a whim, but now I think there may have been something more to it. Thank you so much for all the music and memories, Freddy--you are going to be greatly missed.

God bless you and yours.
