Fred Seelig never met a math problem he didn’t admire. He left us notebooks full of formulas to prove it.
In his 65 short years, he dabbled wholeheartedly in many hobbies, from running to soccer, from art history to the Great Books. He left us sports gear and literary volumes to prove it.
He was stubborn as a mule but with unfailing Midwestern kindness. He kept those around him laughing until the very end.
He approached life with an inexplicable optimism. Over Christmas he called to thank us for a sweater we bought him, saying it was his favorite color and what joy the color brought him. He was 100% blind at the end of his life.
He had a flair for the dramatic so it’s no surprise that his passing coincided with a historic presidential inauguration. He was hardly the picture of health but we didn’t expect him to leave us so soon.
Our relationship with our dad was complex, but we take comfort knowing he loved us and our families – especially his four young grandchildren. He left us sappy voicemails to prove it.
We’d love to hear your memories with our dad – please share them below.
Julie & Rachel
