Not sure what to say?

I love this man. Great talent who sang a song like he was singing director to you. I will greatly miss seeing him perform in person. He is now wooing the angels with his beautiful voice.

I have collected all of his albums and will continue to enjoy them forever.

Friends and neighbors from B'klyn N.Y. Followed all concerts of Freddy. Truly will be missed. "RIP" Freddy.

He was so smooth he always had a smile on his face.
I'm blessed to have seen him in person at Piedmont park.

God bless you, Lionel and Crystal, as you remember your dad, Freddy! I was a friend of your mom, Margaret, and did not know she transitioned in 2015. We were neighbors at Fairfield Timeshare Condominiums. You have my sympathy and love. I lost touch when I moved. I was Pat Barksdale back in the day! Love never fails!

A life well lived, his music will be enjoyed forever. A great duo is now in heaven, Freddy and Nat...sing on!

Rest easy my friend. Thanks for teaching me.

Thanks for the beautiful music and singing.
You were one of the best musicians/ singer.
Enjoy heaven and keep playing and singing.

I had the privilege to spend an hour talking with Mr. Cole. He insisted on being called Freddy. But his being from royalty made it uncomfortable for me to do that. He was a most gracious, kind and humble person. When he was singing on stage it felt like he was talking with you. Like so many others, he left a lasting gift with me.
