___ PCN FLIGHT WEST is sponsored by the Pilot Communication Network and is a service of the PCN provided for the Delta Pilot Retired family of pilot groups. Flight West was started and is maintained to accomplish two main goals. After we become aware of a colleague who has Flown West, 1. We aim to produce a “timely” notice sent to our community that allows for support and interaction from our group toward the grieving family of our friend and colleague. 2. Then, we aim to “archive” that notice on our Flown West Blogspot as a lasting accessible place of Dignity and Honor of our colleague for family legacy and posterity. Contributor contact info is generally removed before posting (unless requested otherwise).

William "Bill" James Fredendall of South Elgin, Ill., passed away on Jan. 30, 2014, following complications from surgery. He was 76. Loved ones will remember him for the way he lived his life - with gusto, generosity and humor. He leaves behind his loving wife, Fran; sister, Janet Freeland; niece, Deana Freeland; aunt Ela Schultz; cousins Roxana Schultz, Lynne Weinberger and Jeff Eckdhal; stepdaughters Linda Freeman, Kelly Scott and Suzann Kelly; friend Clair O'Neill and her daughters, Colleen O'Neill and Molly O'Neill-Schroeer, who were like daughters to Bill; and many more dear friends. Bill was a devoted son to his mother, Anita, who preceded him in death. A proud Chicagoan and American, Bill served in the U.S. Marine Corps, piloting an A-4 Skyhawk fighter in the 1960s. He made a career of flying, spending 33 years as a pilot with Delta Air Lines, rising to the rank of captain. Bill was an avid outdoorsman. He was happiest surrounded by nature, and supported many environmental and animal welfare causes. He made friends easily. He was witty, outrageous, sweet and mischievous. Bill Fredendall was a man with a big personality and an equally big love of life. He will be deeply missed. Services are pending; details will be available at www.countrysidefuneralhomes.com
