Loving son of the late Bertha and Hy Shore. Brother to Neil Shore. Fred was born in Toronto in 1945 where he lived his life outside of a few early years in Chicago. Fred’s love for life, coupled with his enthusiasm,and his sense of humour started as a young boy. Fred was an athlete and there was no sport he didn’t excel in. Through his love of sports he connected with so many people who became his family. Fred’s smile and his generosity were evident in everything he did. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.
