It is with deep sorrow that we share the passing of Coach Fred Bond, who tragically lost his life in a car accident this past Saturday. His sudden departure has left an immense void in the hearts of his family, friends, students, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Coach Fred was far more than a golf instructor — he was a mentor, a leader, and a true friend. His passion for the game was only surpassed by his dedication to the people he taught. With patience, positivity, and a genuine love for helping others improve, he inspired countless golfers to find not only skill but confidence and joy in their game.
Beyond the course, Coach Fred was known for his kindness, humor, and unwavering support for others. He had an incredible ability to connect with people — to listen, to encourage, and to bring out the best in everyone around him. His presence brightened every room and every fairway he walked.
A memorial service is being planned at the driving range at Stonebridge, a place that held deep meaning for Coach Fred and those who trained under his guidance. Further details will be shared once arrangements are finalized, and all are welcome to come together to celebrate his extraordinary life.
While we grieve this heartbreaking loss, we also celebrate the countless memories and lessons he leaves behind. Coach Fred’s impact extends far beyond the game — it lives on in every life he touched, every player he inspired, and every friend who was fortunate enough to know him.
Rest peacefully, Coach Fred Bond. Your passion, your guidance, and your heart will continue to resonate with all who were blessed to call you teacher, mentor, and friend. You will be deeply missed, but your legacy will forever remain on and off the green.
