Cherie and family,
It is with deep sadness that I learned of the passing of your mother. I remember her as a sweet, loving, caring Mom to you and your siblings. And a dear partner to Glenn.
Although many years have passed, it is with much affection and appreciation for Freda’s life and role that my family and I send this note of condolence.

Dear Cherie and family,
I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She was a very sweet lady and I always enjoyed visiting with her and your father when I lived in Trenton. Your father was a great repairman for my sewing machine and vacuums. We had great conversations when I would stop by his shop. Your mother, also, visited with me and we usually discussed you and where you were and some of your activities. They were wonderful people and Trenton does not seem the same without them! I will keep you and your family (families) in my thoughts and prayers. Sincerely, Ann (Fruits) (Nixa, MO)
