Friend : Fred Wagner (AD6FC)

I had the privilege of knowing Fred as
my elmer. Before he became my elmer,
I had the honor of knowing him as my
father-in-law. He was one of the best
people I've ever known in life.


The following is taken from his
obituary:

Clyde “Fred” Fredrick Wagner Jr.
passed away peacefully on Dec. 14,
2017, at the age of 70. Fred was born
in Eureka, on Oct. 28, 1947. He spent
his childhood in McMinnville, Oregon,
and moved to Santa Ana in his teenage
years. There, he met his sweetheart
Darlene, and they were later married
on Jan. 24, 1969. Fred went on to
study pharmaceuticals at the
University of Arizona in Tucson and
graduated with a bachelor’s degree in
pharmacy in 1976. He has worked for
several companies over the years,
always loving being a “drug pusher.”
He relocated to Crescent City the
beginning of 1990.

Fred enjoyed many hobbies during the
course of his life. He was a dedicated
fan of the NHRA, loving the power and
speed of the cars. He enjoyed singing
in choirs, and was most recently a
member of the Pacific Guild Chorale.
He also had a love of HAM radios and
was the president of the Del Norte
Amateur Radio Club. After retiring,
Fred found a passion in wood turning,
winning awards for his beautiful
wooden bowls.

Everyone who met Fred will remember
his great sense of humor,
compassionate heart, and loving
nature. He was a dedicated husband,
father, and grandfather. He was loved
by many, and will be greatly missed.

He is survived by his sister Pam
Infanger, his wife of 49 years Darlene
Wagner, their seven children Allison
Hensley, Jessica Bolten, Fred Wagner
III, Erik Wagner, Bethany McAvoy,
Celeste Lovaas, and Ethan Wagner, as
well as 11 grandchildren.

Fred was preceded in death by his
parents Eureka and Clyde Wagner, Sr.
