Freda was a special friend to our mother, Marilyn Miller. A friendship of laughter, tears, many wonderful conversations. We will miss you Freda. You cared for people, cared about people, kind in every way, enjoyed a good laugh, shared her belief in the Lord. When it´s my time I´am ready, she would say. Blessed to have had you in our lives. A beautiful, lovely lady, special in every way.
Marilyn´s daughter
