William Fristoe Obituary

Thanks for everything! See you Heaven.

What a man of integrity and discernment ! He was able to discern and pray for a situation without knowing all of the details! I am living on some of the prayers he prayed for me. I am eternally grateful for his presence in my life!

Pastor Fristoe is one celebrated life that I know is home to be with the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May his soul rest now, and I will see him again in Glory! God Bless the Fristoes.

-Larry

It's been one full year since you went from labor to your reward. I find comfort in KNOWING that you heard Him say "well done, good and faithful servant." Rest on daddy, I will see you again one day....Lovingly, your baby -

Gina and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Pastor Fristoe was a great man. How blessed you all are that he was so loved. My earliest memory of him was running into him on the stairs, asking for a letter to excuse me from school mass. I just remember looking up at this big man and being terrified. As I got older, I found out he was really sweet. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. May God continue to bless you. Love you.

Gina - your father was a role model for young preachers like myself. He took his calling and his family seriously. A man of integrity who opened his pulpit to me to give me a chance to preach. He was a mentor who earned the respect of all.

We thank God for Rev. Fristoe, he will be missed. Much love to the famliy and we r praying for U.

To the Fristoe Family & the entire Providence family, we were truly blessed by such a God driven man. Everyone doesn't get to be taught, inspired and pastored by such a pure spirit. For this I thank God. Rest on Pastor Fristoe for a job WELL DONE!

I am sorry I was not able to be there Gina. I wanted so badly to participate. Pastor Fristoe is one person I am sure went to Heaven.

Love you!

Larry

You have our heartfelt sympathy and prayers during this sad time. Remember that Jesus promised never to leave nor forsake us. ,He promised that he would not leave us comfortless, that he will come to us. We shall always remember is wisdom and words of wit. We shall remmember him as a man who was warm and kindhearted and Sis Wilcoxon and I always looked forward to talking to the both you at the Conventions. You are in our prayers and there are two things I can't count. I can't count how many times I've let Jesus down and I can't count one time Jesus ever let me down.

Rev. Fristoe was truly a gentle giant. My life has been richly blessed because I had the a Pastor who was God sent to direct my path at an early age. Your guidance will follow me all the days of my life. God offers sweet rest and you angel of God deserves that blessed peace. To the Fristoe and Providence Family I extend my deepest condolences. Comfort one another with these words 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18.

It has truly been a blessing and an honor for our family to have known Pastor Emeritus William Fristoe, a man who exemplified Proverbs 11:3, "The integrity of the upright will guide them..." To Sister Fristoe, Kenny, Vicky, Gina, and Maurice thank you for sharing him with the world, and may God's peace comfort you while Pastor Fristoe is receiving his heavenly crown.

Sis Fristoe and Family: sorry for your lost but I know that you and I all will see him again. I will never forgot him and what he's done for me ie praying with me each morning and even went to divorce court with me. He also taught me the importance of paying my tithes. Again, we will see him again because I believe his favorite words were "Have you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior" and "Let us have a word of Prayer." Love ya!

To my sister :)(Gina), my etiquette idol and the epitome of a godly woman(Sis. Fristoe) and the entire Fristoe family. My prayers and my family's prayers are with you. Pastor meant and still means so much to us. I will share the most recent observation of his impact: My father was crying yesterday because he was "just thinking about Pastor". I said, "Don't worry if we live right we'll see him again one day." He said, "Yeah, but that's a whole lotta living right to catch up to." I love you and will stay close.

Sister Fristoe, are prayers are with you and the family, for this we know that you are still in God's care and Rev Fristoe was dearly loved and a true Pastor, Brother, Friend and Family member to us all.

Cousin Roberta-
Our prayers and thoughts are with you and the family during this time. We Love you and most of all God does too.

What a giant!!!! Though Rev. Fristoe was known all over the country he was most humble. He lived a life of integrity. We are grateful for him touching our lives through his prayers and unconditional love. As we embraced our current leader, there was not a conversation where the love and support was not expressed for Pastor Foster. We feel truly blessed!!!! William & Johnnie Parrish

Sis. Fristoe and Family: God is able. Praying for you.
