I'm so sorry about Cousin Freddie's passing. He was such a gentleman; I can remember our last conversation when I ran into him in Windsor. He was always smiling, gave big hugs, and had a pleasant word to share. Please know that I'm thinking about you and praying that God will keep you during this difficult time.

To Barbara and family, There's no words to express the loss of a love one. We are glad that you were able to enjoy one another and to share in life's adventures. Know that earth has no sorrow that heaven can not heal. Try to remember his contributions to you, family and friends as well as society. Now, he is just in a better place. God bless and keep you with grace and mercy.
Love, Rev. Dr. Kelly & Shirley C. Littlejohn, Jr.

My cousin, I am going to miss you so much. We had a special bond that was so strong (maybe it's because we were only a few months apart). I still remember visiting you when you were at Hillside Manor. You comforted me when you were the one that was sick. All you kept saying was "stop crying cuz I'll be okay". Then you gave me a list of goodies to get for you from the store. Then at your dad's funeral I told Barbara don't get jealous because I love my cousin.She just laughed. MY handsome cousin go on and get your rest.
Love, cousin Cynt

Dear Barbara,
There are no words to express your loss of the love of your life. We ask God to hold your hand, to care for you, just to give you the strength that you need to get through the days ahead. Freddie fought a good fight but God won the battle and he is now in his hands so we can't ask questions why.
Just know that we are family and we will get through this. You will not get over it but you will learn to go around it and with God help you will get through it.
Love your Brother and Sister-in-law
