"Freddie" you may not remember me, but we grew up together in the First Baptist Church in Camden, even if I was older.

I remember Margaret fondly, along with your father, Glen, and your grandparents, the Aurthur Hawkins family. You lived beside them on Maple Street as a child growing up.

My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
