One of the most 'colorful' people to cross path's with Sailor Fred during his life was Tat-2 Tony. Sailor Fred met Tat-2 Tony in the late 60's/early 70's while tattooing the carnival circuit. Tat-2 Tony would take a bench at Sailor Fred's shop or trailer on and off for many years while making his way up and down the east coast. They became so close, Tat-2 Tony is godfather to Sailor Fred's youngest daughter, Nichole. Sailor Fred's stories of Tat-2 Tony are nothing short of hysterical and will be shared in due time.
Tat-2 Tony has since passed although his memories will remain with Sailor Fred and anyone else that was lucky enough to have called him a friend. Top to bottom: Late 1970's Sailor Fred, Tat-2 Tony and Howie the Hand (Sailor Fred's older brother). Late 80's/early 90's Sailor Fred and Tat-2 Tony.
