Fred had a very inquisitive mind and a desire for learning. He could fix most things, and had a habit of picking up discarded and broken items to bring home to repair. If he couldn’t find the right part, he would fabricate it. He was a tool and die maker and in 1950 started an injection molding business called the XM Company. All his children at some point worked at the business. It is still in operation day. When his wife developed Alzheimers Disease he became actively involved the The Alzheimers Association and organized annual walks in her honor. Fred was a 70 year active member of the Lambertville IOOF Lodge and it was a very important part of his life. He participated and organized many fund raisers and events from picking up litter on highways, to the chili cook off when he always made his vegan chili.
Fred was a patriarch of a large family. He looked forward to Sunday afternoons when we would gather at his home for a visit, along with his Wednesday lunches with his Son- in- law Ron and his best friend Bert Rucki.
His life was ended on October 27, 2020 after a short illness from Covid-19.
He was preceded in death by his parents, wife, sister and infant daughter Barbara Ann. He is survived by 5 children; Fred (Betty) Krumm, Kathleen (Ronald) Gill, James (Delores) Krumm, Daniel (Michelle) Krumm and Linda (James) Sullivan. He has 12 grandchildren, 24 great- grandchildren and 16 great- great grandchildren. Due to Covid restrictions, a private graveside service will be held at Ottawa Hills Memorial Park. In honor of Fred any contributions can be made to the Alzheimer Association. Online condolences to reebfuneralhome.com
