Kenneth Eugene Fredrickson, 83, passed away on Thursday, Feb. 27, 2020, at Mayo Clinic Hospital, St. Marys Campus-Rochester. Kenny’s life ended with the same determination and unyielding strength he possessed throughout his life. He was surrounded by his wife, Annetta Frederickson; daughters, Brenda (Terry) Wiedeman and Cindy Wunderlich; grandson, Jesse Angell;

granddaughters, Sara Amdahl, Tara Amdahl and Mandi Miller; great-grandchildren, Devin Amdahl, Diamond Amdahl, Haven Amdahl, Dylan Denzer and Evelyn Denzer; and special friend, Karissa.

We will not say “rest in peace” because, as he said, “Those are fighting words.” To this strong, proud man we say, “Give ‘em hell, Grandpa!”

A celebration of life open house will be held from 1-4 p.m. on Saturday, March 7, 2020, at his daughter’s home, 603 10th St. SW in Austin, Minnesota
