Not sure what to say?

I miss you and wish we had more time together. The older I got, the more I realized how much of a friend you were. Now that I´m older, I wish I could learn how you became so successful, and talk with you about real estate. I miss hanging out with you and it still hurts that you´re not here. But I know you´d want us to not dwell on sad times. Why worry. Love you

Ronnie So sorry to hear of your dads passing. Will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Tammy and Fred's family: I am so sorry to hear of his passing. He was a good man and will always be remembered for his kindness and the love he had for his family. I know he is united with Charlotte now and can only imagine that reunion. You and all of your family are in my thoughts and my prayers! Love, Brenda Dove Noble

Our thoughts and prayers to the Craig family and Jane Broyhill. We will always remember his friendly ways and bright smile.

My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out for this fine man´s family. I always told my wife that I wished I had his temperament and his kind compassionate attitude. I only had the pleasure of knowing and being around Fred for the last twelve years but what a great twelve years they were. I wish there were more but his kindness must have been needed more in a better place. I have lost a lot of friends and acquaintances over the years but this one is going to sting for a while. Rest In Peace...

With the mention of Fred's name, you always heard what a good, kind and wonderful man he was. No matter how busy he was, he always took the time to stop and chat. He was a man who showed compassion to others freely, a fair and honest man. I will truly miss our conversations. My prayers go out to Jane and his family. We all lost a special man who will be greatly missed. Heaven gained an angel of the most highest grandeur! Rest easy dear friend. Until we meet again!

My heart and prayers go out to the family. My dad Gene Shelton thought so much of Fred.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Craig family. May God be with you and give you strength in this time of loss.

Fred was absolutely wonderful to Randal and I. We rented an apartment from him years ago and I have seen him several times in the past couple of years. He was so kind to always ask how we were doing and giving his condolences when Randal passed. He was a great man.
