Freddie came to New York at the age of 19, driving his classic blue Mustang and ready to conquer the world. Under the watchful eyes of his aunt and uncles, it did not take Freddie long to establish himself. We were all very proud of his accomplishments. Rest in Peace Cousin. We love you, but God loves you more.
