Grim, a Green Forest native who lived in Prairie Grove, died Tuesday night in Springdale after a bout with cancer. “Fred was about as good as it gets,” said Pat Foster, a former Arkansas player and assistant coach who was hosted by Grim during his recruiting visit in 1957. “Great person, great teammate, very caring. He just did everything with class.”
