What Arthur had to say about his uncle:

And “hangin out” in Uncle Fred’s barber shop on Sundays with John, Oliver, Fred,etc. While we got haircuts, I found out that girls are different from boys.(Edith, Fred’s wife was discreet enough to allow for the men’s conversation). Fred was a linguist, an accomplished piano and organ player, and had an interest in art. Edith once told me of his desire to take a trip through the hill towns around Florence and go to Giuliano. I regret that we did not do this together...
