Frederick Carlyle Justice, Jr., was born on May 31, 1939, in Evanston, Illinois. He was the eldest of five children of Cecelia Julia (Wagner) Justice and Frederick C. Justice. He graduated from Scranton Preparatory School in Scranton, PA. He attended the University of Scranton, and later received his BSE in chemical engineering from the University of Detroit. He earned a master's degree in chemical engineering from the State University of New York at Buffalo. He later earned an MBA from Central Michigan University. He received another master's degree in international business from Cambridge University in England.
Fred and Mary met while he attended the University of Scranton and she attended Marywood College in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Their life path ultimately brought them to Saginaw, Michigan. Fred spent the majority of his career as the Vice President of International Marketing at Baker-Perkins (and later APV) in Saginaw, Michigan. Fred and Mary (a medical technologist for St. Luke's Hospital and later the Saginaw Medical Center) raised their two children Kathy (radiologist and Co-director of Breast Imaging at Karmanos Cancer Institute in Detroit) and Ted (product engineer at Bay Carbon, Inc., in Bay City, Michigan) in Saginaw. Fred spent the last 15 years of his career working for Chemstations out of Houston Texas. Fred was a Fellow of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers.
Fred was a well-read intellectual who traveled the globe on business and with his beloved wife. His hobbies throughout his life surrounded his passion for scuba diving (including being a scuba diving instructor) as well as being involved with the Boy Scouts of America where he earned a Silva Award as a Lone Scout, and ultimately earned one of the highest awards in scouting, the Silver Beaver, as a scout leader. He was involved in St. Thomas Aquinas parish for many years and later belonged to St. John Vianney parish in Saginaw.
Fred's greatest passion in life was his beloved wife, Mary. He was a loving husband, a wonderful father, and an adoring grandfather. He was also true patriot who was proud to be an American. He will be missed dearly by all of us.
