The late Fred Pass

[Leslump 10]

Does anyone know if the late Fred Pass has any surviving family,we have a photo of him as a baby which we would like to pass on to his family.

[mollie 10]

yes, I think I saw in the paper his wife passed away not long ago, sure he has children but would not know how to contact them. maybe contact the star or radio sheff, both have featured him in the past.

I knew Fred in the early 70s when he was at Bramalls. Often joined him on a Friday night in that pub behind hillsborough baths (Freemasons?). As others have said - a really top drawer guy. Great at telling jokes and funny stories. When I read his books years later, I could hear him talking it.

Sadly missed but the books are a superb legacy!

I used to know Fred when he was at Bramalls with Tony chapman and I used to know the girl he dedicated his book to Annette,He used to go in the Robin Hood and talk to Jack Batty.

I think my Dad Bob was a friend of his when we lived on Hawksley Avenue. How old was Fred when he left us??

Fred also has a brother Brian Pass and sister in law who live at Gleadless. They were our neighbours until we left the area last year.
