Aunt Wilma and Uncle Ralph, Thank You for kind sentiments and for your prayers as we will indeed need them to help us get through the days ahead. You have shown us the way and have done so with grace. We will lean on and look to you all for strength. Love and Blessings.
I am truly sorry for your loss. I know it will be hard moving forward with you all life. Fred was a very close friend and neighbor he will be truly missed. I will cherish his memories forever.
Ben, Fred TRULY VALUED your friendship and kindness as did our Mother Beatrice, Terry and James for ALL that you have done over the years to help and support Fred! We know that YOU are one of the reasons he has made it this far and we will not forget it and will not forget YOU! All Gods Blessings to You and Yours!
We have been neighbors and friends with Fred for over 20 years. He was a kind, thoughtful man who will be sorely missed. To his family, may you find comfort in the difficult days ahead. Rest in peace, Fred.
Roger, Thank you for message. Like Ben, You TOO have been there with and for Fred over the years and have never waivered. We know this because when we asked him, “who can we trust to help and support you?” he also said Roger and Ben without hesitation! This gave our family peace knowing he had 2 neighbor families who were there for him and we thank you for that. we will never forget it nor forget You and yours. Blessing and Peace to you!
My condolences to the Fripp family. I only met him recently but he was a kind and generous man. 🙏🏼
Thank you for the kind words Miss Rosalind. He truly was.
On behalf of my mother, Lou Jones, we wanted to express our sincere sorrow for your loss of Fred. He was and will be forever remembered and light will be over him. God Bless you Family. The Jones, Cooke & Brock Family
Fripp Family,
While my family and I only had the privilege of knowing Fred for a few short years, he has left a permanent impact on our lives. He was truly a kind soul. After being the first person on our street to welcome us to the neighborhood, Fred never missed an opportunity to speak with us. We are grieved to hear of his passing and offer our deepest condolences to all of you. Fred was larger than life and will be forever missed. God bless you all as you continue your journey of healing.
I was saddened to here that Fred crossed over in March when I did not hear from him. I was stationed with him in Davis Monthan Air Force Base, AZ. We shared many young experiences together in the Air Force and grateful for his gentle and timeless spirit and friendship well after our service. I’m happy he leaves a legacy and was fruitful. Rest In Peace my brother and friend. Love You Man. Michael Ray Bragg MSgt USAF Retired
