FREDA M. CRAWFORD

I was a member of Westside Baptist in college, peers of Christa and John. I just learned of Mrs. Cawford's passing and wanted to share my deepest sympathies. She was truly the epitome of a Godly woman. She lived her life with such grace, love and commitment. I am so very sorry for your loss.

Dear Pastor Gary, I write to offer my heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your dearest Freda. I was at Westside from 1985 - 19889, but that was enough time to appreciate both you and Freda and the ministry of the church. Westside blessed me so much. Freda's music minstred much to me. I just heard about her passing yesterday, Feb. 15th. It is my prayer that the God of all comfort will continue to comfort you in these difficult days. May our Lord bless you and the family in ways only He...

Dear Gary and family,
Freda truly was one of the most special human beings I have ever had the honor of working with. In addition to being an amazing graduate student and colleague, she was a true friend. She touched my life and inspired me and so many of our University of Florida science education students. I feel honored to have had the chance to know her.

Pastor Gary, I don't really know what to say. The Christlike influence you have had on my life is amazing even though I'm thousands of miles away. Your marriage was and is a testimony to us who are striving to imitate Christ in the home. We're so sorry. We hope to see you in April. God Bless! Phil, Cyndi and kids Juneau, Alaska

Pastor Gary & Family-
Ms. Freda was a most loving and inspiring woman of God. She was both a faithful minister and Science teacher to my husband and I in High School. I pray the Lord's peace and comfort.
I know there are no words to truly quell the pain of such a loss, nor to express how wonderful a woman she was. May the legacy she left behind and her love for the Father inspire people to see how important it is to live a most fulfilling life in Christ Jesus.
We all have been...

pastor gary, it is with great sorrow that freda died. i will always remember her loving smile. You and freda always remembered my name. i had her for my sunday school teacher at the old church and have many fond memories of her teaching. praise God for her testimony and she can now meet my mother that i lost at 22. just think she doesnt need to go go doctors any more and she doesnt feel bad and is in the warmth of Jesus love. she is learning and asking questions and she is probably...

Pastor Gary and Family,
I am a member at Westside. Please know my prayers and thoughts are with you at this time. The little I knew her she was a great example in all ways. As you know you will always remember her in all ways, but God and time will help in many ways with your loss.

My heartfelt sympathy to your family. As you reflect and celebrate her life, you know that you were blessed. May the God of all comfort be with you (2nd Corint. 1:2 & 3). You are in my prayers.

Pastor Gary, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time. You were SO blessed to have spent so many wonderful years with Freda. She was such an inspiration to all.
