Born May 25, 1938 in Saint John, New Brunswick, Fred was the son of the late Edmund and Gladys Hulme (nee Rossiter). Fred was predeceased by his loving and loyal wife of 56 years, Heather Hulme (nee Moyse). He will be greatly missed by his five daughters, Lori Hulme, Sheri Leadston (Jeff), Tracey Naysmith (John), Tammy Hulme and Chantelle Bennett (Jim), as well as his thirteen Grandchildren; Christopher, Jordan (Jessica), Scott, Noah, Connor, Scott (Miranda), Madeline, Joshua, Ian, Heather, Alec, Shaun and Andrew and his five Great-Grandchildren Camden, Braxden, Lukas, Rohklin, and Willow.

He is predeceased by his brother John Fredricks.
Fred joined the Canadian Military as a young man and served 31 years in the signal corps. Along the way Fred made many friends and established a very large Military Family.
Fred retired in 1986 and went on to open his own business which afforded him the time to follow his creative passions. Fred designed and created many beautiful and original pieces of furniture for his family, which will allow his legacy to live on and be passed down to future generations.
