George Peter Frey's death


Linda Kaer (Mae's daughter) sent me this account of George's death.

"I just read on the blog what you had about Grandpa Frey's death. All I know is what Mom told me through the years. She always said she didn't want to influence us any when it came to politics but we needed to know what she did. She said Grandpa Frey was killed by the Democratic Party because he was fighting against the sale of Colorado water to California. They knew that his mind could not be changed and he wouldn't sell out his beliefs. So they took care of it about the same way they did with Pres. Kennedy. The other man in the truck was found later with $500 in his pocket and that was the amount of money Grandpa had left home with.
Mom also said through out his life he had the same dream over and over. It was about a huge monster chasing him and he knew when it caught him he'd die. She always said the monster was his own truck."
