I knew Brother Fred from St. Peters. He was the perfect receptionist/ambassador for St. Peters as his smile was a welcoming beacon to whoever visited. It wouldn't surprise me if God posted him at Heaven's front door. I can't think of a better celestial greeter.

There was no one else like Brother Fred. I will never forget him...especially his cheerfulness and laughter. A quote which aptly describes Bro. Fred's character is: "The true source of cheerfulness is benevolence." Bro. Fred was, truly, cheerful and kind. I'll miss you Bro. Fred.
