My sympathies go out to all who Knew Fred. We met at Peirce and pledged SGO together. Everyone he touched should remember his kindness and gentleness. The fact that he was so selfless and giving show something about his beliefs which I am honored to share. His legacy is one that I will share to all that are willing to listen. I will miss you until we meet in heaven.

My deepest sympathies to Fred's loved ones. I met Fred at Auerbach Associates over 40 years ago. I had never met anyone from Bridgeton before. I live in PA but I had family in Bridgeton. (Dr. Doherty). I guess I would say that Fred mentored me. We worked together, went out to lunch, he visited me at my parents with his children, he was at my wedding. We lost touch when he moved. I look at his picture and I would know him anywhere even with the snow white hair.

Fred Price was an incredible person with so much respect for people and life. Fred always had a kind word and smile. We loved him and welcomed him into our family. He was our brother and friend. We will miss him dearly. May the family find comfort and peace in prayer.

Fred was recently teasing me because he discovered we shared the same birthday year. He was a great gentleman and a child of God. Peace and blessing to his family and close friend.

To the family and My Sister Chinetta

God does not make mistakes, He called Fred home for eternal rest and peace. Hurt, sorrow and pain are apart of this side of the shore but Fred sees the brightness of hope, joy, laughter and love on the other side. Death is not an ending, it's apart of life's journey. Just know you will see Fred again, until then, trust in the God, Fred wouldn't have it any other way!

To the family and loved ones of Fred, my friend (and fellow Human Resource person,) I pray for your comfort and strength during this time of reflection. Fred was such a giving man and a person of such integrity. I will miss knowing that he would be there if I needed to discuss a point related to the work world, AME norms, and life in general. To God be the glory!!

I had the honor of serving on the Metropolitan Board of Stewards with Fred. I always admired his spirituality and his calmness. He was a genuine good person who will be really missed by his Metropolitan family. But our grief is eased by our knowledge of Fred's strong faith and belief in God. My prayers and thoughts are with his family.

Fred and I worked together in the late 1970's and early 1980's. He was a man of high principles and genuine kindness - and he baked a mean apple pie! It was truly an honor to have known Fred and it is comforting to know that he is at home with his Lord. To Fred's family - my sincere condolences on your loss. He was a wonderful man.

My sympathies go out to your family & closest friends. May the memories that you share sustain you in this difficult time. It was always such a joy to see your smiling face and feel your warm embrace so early in the morning. We would talk about skiing and biking and how early we had to get up to fight for a bike in a spin class. Thanks so much for being a part of my life. Miss you much.
