My deepest sympathy to the Thede Family. I knew Fred from my years at Cargill and I can still see him walking into the office with his "man purse" to settle his account. He always knew right to the penny what his balance should be and always knew right to the bushel what his corn and soybean yield should be. I think he sometimes would test us to see if we were as accurate as he was. Fred was always friendly and a great customer to deal with. He will be missed. Rest in peace Fred .
