Fredda lived a long productive life. She was one of the first people to welcome me to Bolton when Harold and I married. And she continued to do so. I will always remember.
My thoughts are with you.

Aunt Fredda was a wonderful, remarkable lady. We always admired her passion for life, dedication to family and faith, and her creativity in poems and writings. Grandma Frances so enjoyed her visits and relationship with Aunt Fredda over the years. They were sisters and kindred spirits. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you celebrate Aunt Fredda’s life and legacy….and as you journey on.
