Not sure what to say?

I just learned of Fred's passing. My condolences to Sharon and the family. Fred is an amazing man of God. He is a servant of the Lord always. I had the privilege of home teaching in the Riley home and learned more by being there than was ever taught. I'm sure Fred is busy on the other side,helping to make things ready. Our love, Dan Worthington

What a painful loss! Fred was my great-grand- boss and grand-boss for nine years. I enjoyed several of those years at headquarters, where I got to know him better and met Sharyn several times. I am so sorry for your loss, Riley family. Steve, Melinda, Rebecca and I love him and are thinking of and praying for you!

It was a joy working with Fred as a Church service missionary in Welfare for several years just prior to his retirement. He had a great smile and wonderful spirit that always made the day better and I very much appreciated the privelege of working with him.

I am grateful for the privilege of working with Fred in Welfare Services. He was a special friend and an outstanding example of goodness. We had a special trip together to Mexico City as the Church humanitarian effort was assisting with some street children projects there. His insight was invaluable. Great memories! My love and condolences to the Riley family. Garry Flake, Santo Domingo Dominican Republic

My life and career has benefited from Fred's honest feedback and the open critical communication and debate we shared. Fred often stated that his greatest strength was his ability to surrounded himself with smarter and more capable...

THis is a personal loss for our family as I enjoyed working with Fred for so many years being on the Board of Directors of National Council for Adoption. We will miss your smile, wisdom and dedication and hope that you are now in peace.
