Frederick DAVIES

Our thoughts and prayers are with all who loved Fred so dearly. He was a man who knew the strength of gentleness, whose life was filled with thoughtfulness,kindness and love. We will always remember the concerts with George & Fred. What a blessing they were to our lives!

Quite a shock, it was, to learn of the death of Fred. George, I am sure you are devastated! Please know that I will keep you and Fred's family in my prayers. He's no doubt presiding,even as I write, at that golden-stringed concert grand that is reserved for all of us "piano-forte' people" George, and Family, you will survive. Be strong and of good courage! God doesn't make mistakes and He is always right on time. Together, let us bless His Holy Name!

Fred was a ray of sunshine. He was always more concerned about others than himself. I was lucky enough to be able to call him my friend. He helped me and many others through life's hardships. He brought joy, encouragement and a true zest for life where ever he went. The world has lost a true gentleman and a talented artist. My heartfelt sympathies go out to his family and George. We will all miss you.

Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with Fred's friends and family at this time. George, we are especially thinking of your loss, knowing the years you two have graced the music ministry as a duo. Heaven's choir is singing along with the most beautiful music right now and we are comforted knowing we will once again enjoy Fred's playing.

I recently had the great good fortune of reconnecting with George and sharing memories of my parents who have passed away but who loved George and Fred with a passion. I found the music we had of Sacred Stops and Strings and rediscovered the magic. "Magic" is the only word for George and Fred, and with the shock of Fred's passing I can only say all of us have been most alive when we have been under their spell, and with the music Fred leaves behind we can stay there.

My daughter and I had the wonderful opportunity of hearing both George and Fred's superb music at the Presbyterian Church in Absecon, NJ. this past year. What a treat. I admired both but especially Fred for working through his hardships and having the tenacity to return to what he loved. He was and is an inspiration. It is comforting to know heaven is now graced with such an exceptional and remarkable organist as Fred.

Not everyone can be memorable ...Fred was! The music in Heaven is now first class! My family and I were blessed to have Fred, George and Fred's wonderful family in our lives. I am so glad I was recently able to reconnect with Dean. Dean, you and your family are in our prayers. This just gives us all another great reason to look forward to Heaven!

We are praying for Fred's family, and his life-long friend, George. The music ministry that Fred provided for these many years was a huge blessing to me and my family.

May God fill your hearts with His comfort and peace.
