Fred was a member of the First United Church of Coushatta.

Survivors are his friend who he thought of as a daughter, Hanh T. Williams; a sister, Mary Faye Brownfield; niece, Gloria Gay Breedlove; and great nephew, Hunter Michael Breedlove.

I have many fond memories of Fred and Eleanor. He will be missed very much but I do believe he is with his Eleanor now and they can rest in peace together.
