My deepest sympathy to the family. I grew up in the Calgary 5th ward with Fredda. She was an inspiration to me and my family. I learned alot from her. So full of Christ like love. As a young child and youth I looked up to her as the kind of person I wanted to be. Fredda loved the gospel and her enthusiasm showed. She lived the gospel to the fullest and new her scriptures well. I loved watching her lead the music. She gave me great lessons in music as well. I was so greatfull to the Lord to have known her. Hard for me to know she is know longer here on earth. I look forward in seeing her again some day. She has a loving Christ like smile that made people feel so great inside. I'm sure the Lord is well pleased with her. She touched so many people in wonderful ways. What a great teacher as well. Well Done Thy Good and Faithful Daughter welcome home...I'm sure the Lord is welcoming Fredda back home in open arms. What an elect lady. I will miss her too. My mom Vivian Millington does not have email. She offers her sympathy as well. They were good friends. She is saddened as well. My mom lives in Calgary. I wish I could attend the services. I live in Utah now. My prayers are with you all. Your mom was the greatest person and the best example of Charity and not only believed in Christ. She lived like Chrizt. Great example to follow. God bless you all till we meet again. Love the Millington-Huefner family.

Oh, how we loved Fredda. She was such a bright light to us throughout the many years we knew her. We admired her cheerfulness, kindness and positive attitude. Her willingness to serve in both the Church and Community has been an example to us. We loved both Fredda and Don and are thinking of their family with much love. Sincerely, Bill and Ruth Timms and Liz Timms Grossick.
