Obituary of Frederick Predmore

On Friday, the 26^th of November 2021 my husband of 56 years passed away.  He took his last breath at Karen Ann Quinlan Hospice Home surrounded by the compassionate staff.  Fred went peacefully and without pain. I believe our daughter Kim was there waiting for her dad as he crossed over.

Fred was the son of the late James and Margaret (Shader) Predmore, he was born August 12, 1944 in Paterson, NJ. Fred married Elaine (Hartmann) Predmore on April 5, 1965 in Bloomingdale, NJ.

Fred grew up in Riverdale, NJ.  He was in the middle of thirteen children.  Fred understood the true meaning of family, sharing, playing, and getting along.  If you were late for dinner, you were out of luck!  His family had an overflow of love, strong values, and a never-ending support system.

Fred and I raised three children and two grandchildren.  We did it with love, tears, laughter, arguments, and compromise.  He loved the outdoors; hunting and fishing were favorites. Fred took great pride in his home, liked to build cars, and had a great circle of friends.  He came off as a grumpy old man and a complainer, but his heart was three sizes too big!

Survivors include his wife, Elaine; faithful dog Loopie; grandchildren, Autumn Mathis and husband, Kirk, Brandon Weeks and wife, Roseann, April Predmore and partner, Chase Viera, Thomas Predmore and wife, Amelia; great grandchildren, Dylan and Jacob Mathis and Kole Weekes; sisters, Sis, Darlene, Patty, Brenda; brothers Harold, Roy, Gerald; sister-in-law, Helen Okie; brother-in-law, Gordon Hartmann and nieces and nephews. Fred was predeceased by his children Freddy, Kim and Stephen; sister Diane; brothers Roger, Gordon, Georgie and Donald.

Fred will be forever missed by me and his dog, Loopie and his family and friends.  Thank you for our life together!

Services and cremation will be private at the convenience of the family.
