I have known Fred McKay for a great period of time now and have only wonderful things to say. He has been an active member in the Kyneton community for over a decade helping those in need and less fortunate than himself. Fred is a kind, quiet, friendly and loving individual. He regularly spends time with our 2 children age 4 & 6 along with our Jack Russell Chiuahua X. We trust him with our children, house and pets dog/chickens/goose.
