We had the pleasure to work with Chaplain Redd at the VAMC DD. He had a very spiritual soul who touched many. I can remember he would always stop by our house and deliver fresh bunches of Collards for my mother to cook. Even during his illness he was just as talkative and uplifting as always. To the family our deepest condolences

Our deepest sympathy to you & your family Al. God's peace, love and Blessings.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.
