Condolences from Jim & Sandy Timberlake of Mason, Ohio. Frieda, Frank & Joyce (cousins) lived next door to us in Norwood Ohio several years in our youth. About 20 years ago, Sandy, our youngest son Jonathon & I visited relatives in Tennessee. We spent several enjoyable days with Frieda, Aunt Corrine & relatives. She was a most hospitable host & her cooking and Aunt Corrine's baking we'll never forget. I'll never forget our times together in Norwood. God bless you all.

Love, Jim & Sandy

We have only good memories of our friend , Freida, from years past. She was a good and kind person who was a joy to be around and work with. We recall her involvement with the Medina school when our children were all there together.
