Dear family, you have my deepest sympathy, in the transitioning of Freda. I had the pleasure of meeting Freda when she was in Junior High school. She was a bright and well liked student! She seemed even more eager to do her best work, once she learned that we are related on her maternal side of the family. May she rest in Peace.

To the family this hurts.
Because I remember I won a bet when I was pregnant with my first child she was born a day before her birthday . And after I had her she was at Freda house. We had so much fun in the corner house. (Doing the butt).I might not be around but I still remember the fun and the craziness that went on.
