My deepest sympathy for the loss of a son, a brother, a father and a friend. I knew Freddie in the earlier years when we were just kids and Nancy and I went to elementary school together. However, I also knew Freddie, and what a guy he was; Always playing jokes and just wanting to see you smile. Nancy, my friend, "May the tears fall as they may, but may they some day become tears of joy." Blessings to you and your family. Mr. & Mrs Harrison, Nancy, Deon & Brittanni.

To the Harrison family: My condolences go out to you. I am still shocked to learn of the sudden calling of Freddie to go home with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Freddie was a dear friend and a brother. I always remember the times we had in high school and especially our band days together. I remember on Fridays, I would go home with Freddie after school. We would sit back and eat, laugh and get ready for the Friday night football games. The band was like a brotherhood. I pray that God gives you peace, comfort and surrounds you with His loving arms. I will miss him dearly. May God be with you.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family in the passing of your loved one. Freddie was truly a loving person. His joyous laugh would brighten a room. He will be missed deeply.
He’s in a Better Place!
He’s in a better place right now
than he’s ever been before;
All pain is gone; he’s now at rest;
Nothing troubles him anymore.
It’s we who feel the burden,
our sadness and our grief;
We have to cry and mourn our loss,
Before we get relief.
We know we’ll reconnect with him at the end of our life’s road,
We’ll see his cherished face again
When we release our earthly load.
Love, Regina Ragan

Freddie and I go waaay back to Robert E Lee Elementary School. The day I met Freddie, I fell in love with his infectious smile and personality sought by many! I worried poor Nancy daily asking her, "where is your brother?" Even after we had graduated from school, I would see Freddie from time to time around town...especially at the Croaker Spot. He was always the same! He always took the time to stop, hug and chat a while. What a wonderful friend to have for well over 20 years. I thank God for sharing Freddie with us for a short while. The bible says that "rather to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord". I truly believe that Freddie is resting in the arms of Jesus....til we meet again. To the family, God will take care of you!
