Uncle Fred was a grocer deep to the core. He seem to live and breath thegrocery business . I remember his keen eye for a neat way to sellproducts and his special recipes for BBQ an d homemade sausag e that hesold in the Lebanon Food Center for many years. He would sell peac hes andwatermelons by the truck load and had a special building built just tokeep sweet potat oes fresh. I can still rememb er the panic he caused inthe town by selling chicken for 19 cen ts a pound which was at that timewell below cost. I can recall that he once got in a spot o f troublefor selling pork chops by the d ozen rather than by the pound like thegovernment wa nted. He got around that by selling packages by the poundwith twelve chops in a package.
He served in WW II in General Patton's 3rd Army. He was a cook, i.e.learned quickly in lif e that the army travelled on it stomach and usedthat concept for the remainder of his life.
He served as a deacon for many years of the College Street Church ofChrist.
