Frida you were a kind and Beautiful Soul and we always had such a great time shaking our groove thing!! And you always took the time to smile and take a picture with me and that means the world to me as your picture pops up often on my frame and I think of how much fun we had at Zumba class or Zumba events just hanging out being good friends. My condolences and to your family I am so sorry for your loss Freda will be greatly missed. I sincerely apologize for doing this twice but it's so much better with the pictures. To see her beautiful smile.
