To the Family of Fred Wilson - I would like to offer my Condolences and Sympathies concerning the passing of my Friend, Fred Wilson. I met Fred Wilson about 20 years ago while working at Robins Air Force Base we talked about a lot Contemporary Events and Cultural Things and how we as Black Folks could get it together in a manner that would best serve the whole needs of all People especially Black Folks. We also discussed Fred's Adventurous Travels all over these United States. Fred was a Traveling Man and he always made it to the Black Tie Affairs when he was in a strange city or State. Family , I just want to say I will miss this TRAVELING SOUL and that I am sending up prayers that the Lord of this Universe watch over his Family while experiencing this loss of a Great Person. Also would like to say that I just found out yesterday that My Friend, Fred Wilson had transition home while talking with another colleague of ours, Dunbar.

It was truly sad to learn of Fred Wilson's passing. Fred and I were part of the Middle Ga College Class of 1973. He visited me during a trip to San Antonio last year and we had a great time talking about the old days. Life is so short; we never known the time nor the place! To the family; weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Wilson family and Fred's many friends. Rest in peace, my friend, rest in peace! With deepest and heartfelt sympathy.
