To the family of Fred Walls who I have known for 20 years. You are my family also as I know I am yours. And I love you all dearly. The Fred I knew was a good man with a kind and loving heart, he was like the father I never had, and I loved him dearly. I didn't visit as much as I should have, but I miss him just the same. If there's anything I can do for any of you, you know all you have to do is call. My heart breaks knowing the pain you are going through and the emptyness you feel inside. Fred will be in our hearts forever. Gone but not forgotten. I love you all with all of my heart and soul.

If roses grew in heaven,

Lord pick a bunch for us,

Place them in my papa's arms

And tell him they are from us,

Tell him that we love him

And when he turns to smile,

Give him a hug from us,

Hold him for a while

Remembering him is easy

We do it everyday

But there is an ache within our

Hearts, That will never go away

Papa we miss you so much!

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Fred Walls, I didn't really know him all that well but I've known his daughter Sara and his granddaughters Tonya and Wendy for most of my life and they are a very loving and caring family. If there is anything I can do, please let me know. All my love, Brenda Powell
