Alfredo Vasquez Obituary

Those of us who worked in Berndt Hall in the evenings always looked forward to Alfredo making his rounds. Always a cheerful word, asking about the family, some useful wisdom, keeping Berndt Hall looking good, which helped us all do our work a little better. He was patient when my kids would forget and write on his clean chalkboards, and he thrilled them when he brought them out to the farm to pick out a pair of pet goats. Alfredo indeed brightened Berndt Hall and was an important part of our community.

In retirement he would sit at our kitchen table to drink coffee and laugh about old times. We always looked forward to seeing Fred. A fine man.

Alfredo (Fred) worked in my office building at Fort Lewis College. We often had the best conversations in the evening. He was a genuine and loving person. He told me many stories about his family. Later, I would see him at Walmart, and I would always get a big hug. He made my life brighter and happier.

I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Alfredo. His wife, Lucy, was my mother's first cousin. I grew up and attended school with his sons, Benny, Rudy, and Sam. My condolences to his family. God speed Alfredo. Vaya con Dios!

To Bruno and family, so sorry to hear about your dad's passing, was not around him much but we loved him

Alfredo (Fred) was a wonderful guy. My late wife Doreen loved him. When he worked at FLC they so often had long, good talks at night. I still remember a wonderful cookout he threw for the FLC chemists and their families...and I have good memories of talks in his Walmart days.
A wonderful man, Alfredo!

My grandpa was such a giving person. He was always talking to anyone & everyone. I will forever cherish the time & lunch dates I had with him. I love you so much grandpa.

So sorry to hear about your dad, he was a good guy and really knew how to dance.

Alfredo was a great citizen and a great friend,he was always there to help if you need him, he will be greatly missed.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering Him our cherished loved one today and always.
