Remembering Fred

25 Oct 2024 - by Graham

Those of you who are regulars at South Norwood will already have heard the sad and unexpected news about Fred, who passed away suddenly last week after a stroke. All of us at Tangosynthesis extend our deepest sympathy to his family and friends at this difficult time.

Fred was a cornerstone of the South Norwood tango group and had been coming to us for several years. His unique and flamboyant dancing style always made everyone smile, and although he never quite seemed to dance the exercises in the way that I had planned he inspired everyone to really enjoy the dance and to express themselves on the dance floor more than they thought possible.

Fred was unique and brought a wonderful character to the group that will never be replaced. His stories made us laugh, his dancing inspired us, and his personality brought us together.

Thanks for all the dances and laughs, Fred. You will be missed.
