Dear Carolyn & Family, We were so sad to hear about Fred's "Home Going", but we know he is in a better place called "Heaven". Sorry we didn't know about him, until it was too late. Also, we both have been pretty sick and would not have been able to come if we had known sooner. We have prayed for you both lots and we will continue to pray for you. May the Lord bless you during this time of sorrow with His Comfort, Peace and Love. We love you and loved Fred,too. Maybe someday all the 49rd can get together again and have a wonderful time of fellowship. Love In Christ Jesus,
Cecil and Jeanette Holcombe, Between, GA
