Fred spent most of his career with Sorenson Enterprises retiring as president in 2004. He enjoyed tennis and skiing in earlier years and later became an avid golfer belonging to both The Golf Club of Avon and Tater Hill Golf Club in Vermont. He loved bird watching and fly fishing and he traveled widely enjoying many trips in the US and Europe. He enjoyed reading about history and watching documentaries. He had a wry sense of humor which was loved by those around him. Fred loved spending time with family whether on holidays, vacations or just drop- in visits. He was very close to and proud of his daughters. He expertly drove monsters out of his grandchildren’s rooms when they were young and attended their sporting events and graduations as they grew. The birth of his great grandson and namesake, Charles Fredric, gave him great joy. In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by his brother Skip with whom he had a deep and forever connection. Besides his wife, Meg, he is survived by his loving and deeply loved daughters and sons-in-law, Heidi and Stephen LaCava and Kristin and Dirk Kann, his cherished granddaughters- Karina, Madeline, Bridget and Annie and his treasured great grandson Charlie. He also leaves David Garach with whom he had a special bond and his dear and longtime friends who have been at his side throughout. He shared many wonderful experiences with his much loved sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law and nieces and nephews and with special cousins who reconnected in recent years.
