Not sure what to say?

Lord wish your soul. Fred, sending love to the family from the Alcoa family.

I never met the man, but I came to the funeral to support his daughter, Felicia. I know that She and her sister, Chandra, traded the duty of caring for him in his last years. He seems to have had the grace of God to choose when he died. Despite his problems with his aging memory, he showed up to the family Thanksgiving almost like a final fair well.

My condolences to the family

I would like to offer my condolences to Mr. Collins family . I didn't know him however his daughter Chandra is a client of mine.

My Dad, My Hero, My Friend. Thank you for always guiding and correcting me in the way I should go. You understood my weaknesses and provided comfort and extended grace in my struggles. Always encouraging me that I can do anything i put my mind to with the help of the Lord. I thank God for sharing you with me all these years to help shape my character. I am truly blessed to have you as my earthly Father. I will forever love you and miss you. I will see you again. Love “Twindle”❤

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

I'm sending my sincere condolences to the Collins family. The last time I saw Mr Fred is when I took my mother to visit Mrs Rose at the house. At that time he was going through his health issues but was glad to see us and he knew who we were. It was a nice visit for all of us. That's a great way to remember him. May God bless and comfort you all. ❤ ~ The Stovall Family

My Father: He was the smartest man I have ever met or will ever meet. He taught me many skills for living, competing, and achieving in life. Even though Daddy is not here in person, I feel him in the lessons he left behind, and his love still comes through to me. I will forever be your "Big Girl". And, when you get the choice to sit it out or dance; I hope you dance!!! I...
