I was a freshman with Fred in 1969 at Maryland State College and he was the class president. I remember in his speech he said that "A Stranger is a Friend whom you have never meet: and that statement has always stuck in my mind when ever I think about him. To God Be the Glory!

I am so sorry to learn of Frederick's passing. I am a classmate of his, from the first graduating class of JMB Class of 1966. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
