Fred H. Greenfield, age 64, of Hammond, died on November 1, 2010 at his home, surrounded by his family. Fred was born on September 4, 1946 to Howard and Dorothy (Gifford) Greenfield in River Falls, Wisconsin.  He grew up and worked on the family farm and graduated from St. Croix Central High School in 1965.  Fred stayed on with the family farm until around 1986 when he took a job at Polfus Implement (now Frontier Ag Turf) and worked as a trucker and a lot manager.  On March 30, 1974, Fred married Melanie Kamm at St. Bridget’s Catholic Church in River Falls, Wisconsin.  The marriage would be blessed with 5 children; Fred Jr, Tom, Jackie, Anna, and Michael.

Fred had many passions in life, but all involved spending time in the great outdoors.  Fred was an avid hunter and loved to fish.  He also enjoyed riding four-wheeler & snowmobiles.  One could also find Fred cheering on his grandchildren at the local pedal tractor pulling contests.  What made all of these activities the best was that he could do them with his friends and family.  It was the time spent with them that made everything else really special.

Fred is survived by his wife, Melanie; children, Fred Jr of Osceola, Tom (Lynn) of Roberts, Jackie (Gary Benck) of Woodville, Anna (Stacy) Goossens of Hammond & Michael of Hammond; grandkids, Cory and Bradley Greenfield and Nicole Benck of Woodville, Alexander and Emma Greenfield of Roberts, and Steven, Ruby, and Carter Goossens of Hammond, brother, Donald (Bernadine) Greenfield of Roberts and many other relatives and friends. Fred is preceded in death by his; parents, Howard and Dorothy (Gifford) Greenfield; sister, Carol Jean, and parents-in-law, Richard and Doris Kamm.
