Uncle Freddie, you were one of the most humble and respectable guys I’ve known. It’s unfortunate that we no longer have you here in the physical, but you will always be in our hearts. You made my extended family happy, and for that you will ALWAYS be a hero in my book. Rest on Freddie; you are officially an Angel.

I was the baby with our grandparents until you came along and I became a big sister, who now had a baby brother to play with. I will forever cherish our time knowing this is not the end, and, we will see each other again. Rest now with your mom, grandpa and grandma and I will see you when it’s my time. Love Always, V

Nicky, my heart is heavy with your passing but my memories of you were filled with much happiness and will forever be lasting. You were dear and special to me, always on my mind, always together as kids. I love you brother and it hurts to see you go. It’s comforting to know that you will be with mom, gran, and those friends and family we’ve lost and loved. You are one of God’s angels now and will comfort us from up above.

You will forever be in my thoughts and in my heart. I love you Nick.

Nicky,

My dearest cousin. We all take our family for granted, thinking they will always be around and we don’t call each other often, or visit, or say I love you. Always too busy living life, but I do hope you know, I love you and I will miss you. Whenever,I thing of you, I can hear your voice saying “hi Mich” and it makes me sad. Then I think of the times you used to say ” yeah I’m the candy man” and that always makes me laugh a little. Rest peacefully with granny and antie.

With deep sympathy I send my condolences to Mrs. Sabrina “Ma” Richards and the entire family. Ma, I ask that God continues to comfort you and the family in this time of grief.

I remember when I first met Mr. Freddie and Sidrena and I joked around, calling you Stella but the love you all exemplified for each other was pure. I never seen you all lose that spark for one another.

Mr. Freddie was a good man and he blended right in with the family. He was a little more reserved but he showed love, a kind heart, and knew how to have genuine fun. He leaves behind memories and laughter that will never be forgotten.

“Weeping may endure for a night but JOY cometh in the morning.”

Psalm 30:5

Love and Sincerity

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal but love leaves a memory no can steal.

My dearest and oldest cousin Nicky, your untimely death has come upon us suddenly and unexpectedly and overwhelmed us with grief. I’m still in shock hoping someone will pinch me and say stop dreaming woman, Nicky is still alive and kicking. But in reality I know that will never happen. You’re gone but will never be forgotten. You will forever live on in our hearts and our thoughts. The only consolation I have is knowing you’re up there in heaven with the angels alongside your mum, gran and grandpa. May your soul rest in peace. Love you always.

Cousin Bernie.

To Sabrina Murray Richards and the Richards family –

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. I think Mr. Frederick was here for a reason….

When someone is in your life for a REASON,

it is usually to meet a need you have expressed.

They have come to assist you through a difficulty; to provide you with guidance and support; to aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.

They may seem like a GODsend and they are.

They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.

Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.

What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their work is done.

The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.

Mr. Frederick lived life, so learn from his lessons – live your life.

Kate (Hopkinsville KY USA)

My thoughts are with all family and friends of Fred… A loss is a loss and the hurt we feel can be felt in many different ways. We all leave a mark in this world, and when we leave this world the impression, the mark etc will remain, as will Fred,s memory.

He will always remain a loving memory in all of our hearts RIP in the loving arms of The Lord Freddy

Gone too soon Cousin.

Born of the sun, we traveled a short while toward the sun.

Where there were seasons and sky. Where there were monuments.

Like a single engine plane in a July haze. . . .
