Uncle Freddie was a character 😁 I remember when I was small and he would come to the house he would always ask for ice-cold water to drink and he would always tell me to make sure it was cold cold lol. I remember working the night shift and looking up down the hall I saw this man waiting at the elevator and I said to myself that person looks like uncle Freddy. Sure enough, it was him! I escorted him to the correct elevator and waited with him while Geeta came to pick him up. Mind you this was all during covid. I remember him asking me how did you know that was me and I distinctly replied saying I know my family! He laughed. Uncle Freddy, you will surely be missed your sense of humor was so contagious.  And I loved hearing about your back-home stories made me feel like I was there. You're a legend and legends never die I love you uncle Freddy I hope you're reunited with all your ancestors and telling all kinds of jokes!

My sister and family you have my sympathy. I know life would not be the same without our dear brother Freddie, but I pray God give you courage, faith and strength to continue. I pray God bless you and keep your family together. I've know my brother in law as a very kind hearted person, someone who loved to help those in need. He has supported me and my family tremendously, this I would never forget. I remember when myself and family were living in Enterprise, we were supposed to move because the house we were living in was selling, you stepped in and bought that house and let us continue to live there. Thanks to my brother in law we had a roof over our head for almost 20 years. So many memories flood my mind today as we reminisce on the great things our brother did and the time he spent with us. We will miss him but his memories will forever be there. To my niece ( and your family) and nephew, I pray you find comfort knowing that your dad loves you both even though he's gone he will continue to , my condolences to you. Sending love.

Sending love and hugs to my dear aunt Nali, cousins and family. Uncle Freddie was a wonderful person to me and my family. He added laughter and joy to my childhood. Even though he passed, he will be remembered and loved. Rest in peace uncle. My condolences to his loved ones. 

I met uncle Freddie in 1998 when my husband Paul brought him to meet me at Office of the President. In true  uncle Freddie style in 80 degree temperatures in Georgetown! From then on he was always courteous, respectful and humorous!  Fast forward to 1999 meeting again in Washington , like his own children he took Paul and I for Ice Cream and suggested what we should have ‘Banana  Split’ and indulged with us. It was memorable and Paul and I always choose that flavour when we visit Dairy Queen. May his legacy lives on through his wonderful children❤️ travel safe uncle Freddie🙏 Om Shanti

Geeta,
Our sincere condolences. May Freddie's soul attain Moksha. Om Sadgati.

We extend our deepest condolences to the bereaved family. In this time we hope that you gather strength and courage to find comfort in his memories. May it be enough to carry you all through this painful time. 
Robby and family. 

Dear Freddie, Thank you for your loving kindness and welcoming me into your family. Your jokes and laughter will surely be missed.  I will be forever grateful for those moments and memories.  Love, Della! 

Freddie you are at rest, no more pains and sufferings. Yet with all of that you still showed strength, faith and grace. You’ll forever be missed but all the memories of the good times and laughter we shared will forever live on. You were a man with a great big heart. I’ll always remember you and your family for the love, kindness and support you showed and gave during my surgery / recovery and the death of my mother in law. Pream and family, my family and I give you our deepest condolences and may God comfort your hearts and give you the peace and strength to get through the days, months and even years to come. 

Rest In Peace My Friend 🌹

I still cannot believe that you are gone uncle freddy. We use to talk on the phone almost every day. You looked and sound so strong. I asked how you are feeling and u always reply that you are feeling much better. All of a sudden I heard that u were no more . I was in shock . You use to make sure that u called almost everyday even though you are the elder. Uncle freddy loved his friends and family so much. He would  always ask about mom and molly. I miss our conversations so much. I loved hearing about all the long time stories that he would tell me . I especially loved to ask him about my grandparents and mamoos. I never knew my grandparents. My grandmother and uncle freddy mom are sisters. He would always tell me stories about them and I would feel like I knew them. Uncle freddy never cared about rich or poor. He loved everyone regardless and always try to help in any way he can even when he is sick or not feeling well, he would hide his feeling and push himself to help . He always visit us in Guyana and never complained about outside toilet or anything. He was grateful and comfortable with everything. Uncle freddy always makes everyone happy and he would light up any room he enter.Uncle freddy loves Guyana so much.He wanted to retire and live in Guyana. He enjoy fire side food, bush cook, fishing, gardening.He loves a simply life. But God had other plans. I will miss his pepper sauce. Uncle freddy had Geeta drive him to the post office and mail out a bottle of pepper sauce for me from Maryland to Florida.One day we were talking and I mentioned that all my pepper sauce finished and I have to go buy pepper and make. He told me not to make any, that he has alot of peeper at home and he would send me a bottle. That is the type of person uncle freddy was. We ended up sending things to each other.I would send mangoes or hassa and he would send butter nut squash from his garden or pepper.Maryland and Florida has these things but we still use to send things to eachother.

When we first bought our home I wanted to redo the floors before moving in. Dad kept telling us to take a small piece of wood and rub the stain on it to see if we still liked it because the color shown at the store is not how it turns out on the floors. He suggested golden oak but we wanted something “modern” and we chose a darker color. We hired someone to do it and I HATED it! I distinctly recall saying, “what de ass is this $#!+ brown color on my floors?!?” I don’t know where the error occurred but I strongly believe it was how the person applied it. So I called dad and told him I didn’t like the floors and asked if we could redo it? He said “yeah we can, but that gon be nuff wuk,” but we can do it ourselves. And that’s exactly what happened. Dad wanted to/needed to help. The mess that ensued from that stain removal—I NEVER want to experience something like that again! I’m sure there’s still $#!+ brown dust in areas we couldn’t reach!! But with the help of Dad, Uncle Van, and Michael the floors were sanded and re-stained with the stain golden oak and they turned out beautifully. At some point during the helping process dad must have stepped outside with his stained feet to get his shoes on—this left footprints on the stoop. It’s remained covered for years and no one knows it’s there besides Michael and I. Now, I cherish those footprints. I don’t think I can ever move from this place because of those footprints and the fact that my dad did these floors. My dad knew how to fix so many things. And I knew I could always call on him to ask advice on something that needed fixing—I’ll miss that.

Freddie & family have always been great neighbors. I have fond memories of him and his big smile while walking around his yard& garden with no shoes and shirt on with a cigarette in hand. We've had many garden & other life conversations over the years across our fence line, the last of which was a few days before his passing about a new bug zapper I had installed. Freddie you will be missed, but never forgotten.

Every time I’m doing something Freddie always comes around, he’s always interested and he wants me to show him how to do it. He always showed support for me in the things I did.

Funny story behind this picture. Dad had recently been released from the hospital but he'd promised these beautiful ladies he'd pay them a visit--  they didn't know he'd been in the hospital.
We were in the middle of doing something else, I think we were visiting people or stopping in the shops, when I spotted the two ladies walking up the road and alerted dad, I was like dad I think they're looking for you.  It was a good thing neither of them had spotted us first!  

He didn't miss a beat, he walked out and greeted the ladies as though we just so happened to cross paths  and  told them that we'd  just been on our way to see them. He then proceeded to acted as though everything was fine  just so he wouldn't worry them. 
So typical of him never wanting others to worry about him. 

Uncle Freddy was known to be one of the most kindest, caring, and loving uncles I had. From a very young age he could not remember my name for the life of him, so he always called me Angelina. I remember when he used to have baby ducks in his backyard, he would call me every single week to play with them. During my college years I used to visit him during my lunch breaks to have tea and crackers and he always had a special cup that’d he serve me with. It would take forever to convince him to sit down with me because he would be scouring his house for some other snack to give me. I’ll miss my tea partner very much, thank you for all the ice cream money

My Dearest loving kind hearted Brother Freddy ❤️💕. Man of all trade!! Always willing to give a helping hand and good advice.  You always find someone to assist us.  My Brother you are one in a million.

You are loved by all.  Any where you go you always make friends.  I will missed your calls, your advice and you not being here.

Even if it’s the last thing you have you would give it freely.

So my Dear Brother, God has better plans for you.  Gone too soon but will never be forgotten. You are in a better place now. No more pains, you are at peace now. No more running up and down to the Doctor or Emergency room.  Rest in peace my beloved brother ❤️💕😘😘Eternal peace Om Sadgati  JSK 🙏🙏🙏


     
  



We are so happy we had the opportunity to meet Freddy and get to know him. We especially loved seeing him in his famous “Freddy hat”!! He looked so cute. He and Nalini were always so kind and generous to us. Every time we came for a visit they would bring over their delicious chicken curry. Loved it…but spicy!! We will miss him. Rest In Peace dear Freddy.  Mimi
     Freddie was always proud of his home country Guyana. He kept telling me how great their rum was so I had to taste it. Next thing I know he was giving me a bottle of rum to take home! Freddie was a proud and generous man…always with a smile. He will be missed. Pops
    

Freddie Singh was an original. He had a biting sense of humor not expressed in joke and stories, but through one-liners that could strike down an elephant. He always spoke with colorful language, something only he could do with impunity. It was so because we all knew that, at heart, he loved life and everyone around him. Our mutual friend Joe Singh and I spoke about Freddie and did some Freddie one-liners for several weeks before his passing, not knowing that we were enjoying his legacy while he was still with us. I am saddened by my friend's passing, and his absence will leave a gap in life that won't be filled by anyone. Rest gently Freddie.


He usually place me in a bag every time I misbehave and will take me to the street end pretending to carry me to the sea wall. After a while of this I caught up to his tricks and play along because I got to hang out with him and became good pals. 

Like everyone else, I also have many memories of Uncle Freddy. I can only write so much here, but almost everyday since the day I was born has been a memory with him. 

I was told that when I was born him and my dad bought 2 goats for my 9 day and it was the biggest party our house had ever seen. When I started school he would always tell me to "catch my book," from the beginning he wanted the best for me. While most kids spent their summers sitting at home I had the luxury to join him and Uncle Ceasar(pictured on the right) on handyman jobs they did. I learned so much from being with them, from landscaping to contruction and plumbing. Whatever knowledge they had they used it to  educated me. When I learned how to drive, Uncle Freddy gave me his truck and built my confidence until we got my dad's truck fixed for me to use. This turned into years of me driving him around to home depot and wherever else he wanted to go. As the years went on I'd still ask Uncle Freddy's advice on many projects and he would ask my advice on things he didn't know how to do.

I was lucky to have Aunty Nalini and Uncle Freddy around as a kid in addition to my parents. It is because of them that I am fortunate to have grown up with Geeta and Pream. 

Uncle Freddy was a selfless person. He would always help anyone in any way that he could. While he was busy helping everyone else I was one of the few people he asked to help him when necessary. My neighbors to this day remember and ask about Uncle Freddy. I am forever grateful to have gained from his experience and endurance and will always cherish the time I spent with him.

Uncle Freddie I will surely miss you🥺. I would never forget how much you encourage me to be strong during my time of sickness. You called almost  everyday to check up on me and I won’t forget how much you made me laugh when you give me tips on how to handle the nurses who were taking too long. You were such a humble, kind and loving person to not only me and my family but everyone. I would cherish all the wonderful memories I have of you. Sleep In Peace uncle Freddie!

To aunty Nali, Geeta, Pream and other family I give you my sympathy. I pray that God comfort your hearts and give you the strength to get through the coming days.  

6/5/22 The last time my parents came to my home together. Dad hadn’t been feeling well but him and mom came because I needed them. My brother and I are so blessed to have the parents we have— they ALWAYS supported us in whatever way they could. 

MJ adored his Nana. Besides my husband and myself the ONLY other person he’d willingly to go is my dad and Uncle Kaymo who he thought was my dad.
 Im SO SO thankful to have this memory to share with my son. 

I met uncle Freddy about 13 years ago!  And since then he has never failed at making one laugh even if he /she is sad he finds humor in the situation. 
Uncle Freddy linked me to family members I never knew I had, his father and my great grandfather are brothers within the short period of getting to know uncle Freddy he owned me as if he knew me all my life even though he never knew I breathed until that faithful day I wasn't sure what to say when he mention who he was to me.  My husband and I extend our prayers and heartfelt condolences to his family most importantly Geeta, Pream and aunty Nali we pray that God gives you the strength for the days ahead as we live on with wonderful memories of uncle Freddy. 🕊 Rest in Peace.

It sucks not being able to hop in my car and come by. I remember when you used to take me to go visit my grandfather and we would stop by checkers in your Tacoma. Lmao you loved those fries 🍟. I wish I could pick up the phone and tell you how crappy my week is just so you could crack a joke make me see the  brighter this in the situation. You where a young Spirit. I remember you where so terrified when I told you i joined the marine corp yet so proud. I remember stopping by and you said ,”man kev  I wished you would have said something to me about that join the Air Force “ and I explain this is just a goal of mine.  You’re going to be missed Uncle goose 

Uncle Freddy thank you for being a dear friend and like a brother to my mom. You stood by us since my dad's passing and I will never forget the kindness you showered upon us.  My dad loved and trusted you and it's like he knew you'd be there for us always.  You were a gem, may you rest in Peace always and forever.
You were an amazing person with heart of gold. 

Rest in eternal peace ❤️ 

2016,I left my parents home to live on my own uncle FREDDIE allowed me to stay at their Guyana home , moving in here as the building was still in progress,  he said to me gal renee u can put a fireside to cook , i look at this man n said to myself what 🙄 i don't like scrubbing pots,  today i wish i had listened to him , we all knows how much he had love the food as he usually use that way to get his meals done Guyana style . U will surely be missed RIP 

My deepest sympathy to Nalini, Geeta and Premchand and the entire family of my dearest friend. Freddy was more than a friend he was my brother. He will be deeply missed. Rest In Peace my brother 

Freddy emigrated from Guyana to Maryland in 1990; he stayed at our home and we soon found him a job.  I was pregnant with his nephew, Christopher Singh, and when I returned from work everyday, he was cooking dinner, and cleaned up too!  On the morning of Chris' birth, I had severe pains; he made coffee, I told him Dr. said no coffee!  He and his brother rushed me to the hospital where I had a c-section.  Nalini joined him soon after, then Geeta and Prem; they all helped raise Chris.  When Chris was in high school, Freddy told him to fork the garden to plant vegetables; he asked Chris "boy,  don't you eat?", meaning Chris was too soft and should learn to do manual labor.  Whenever my family visited, they met Freddy and everyone liked him.  He was like a magnet and drew everyone close to him. Rest in peace.

My Uncle Freddie leaves with me some strong lessons. He taught me many things by being the example.  He taught me humility, kindness, the power of soft words and the value of an education. In fact he is directly responsible for who I am today because in so many ways he contributed to my upbringing.  I am forever grateful for you Uncle Freddie. 
I will forever remember the way you stood by my parents when we were small and they were struggling to make ends meet. 
I will forever remember the gentleness you showed my children.
  Juliana always warms up after your phone calls with her. Even though most of those calls were made from your hospital bed, you always managed to leave my child smiling. Your "I love you baby" at the end of each phone call is what we will all keep as your final message to us.
It breaks my heart that I cannot be there in person to see you one last time.😭
I will always try to emulate those qualities I admire in you. Rest up now. Until we meet again.I love you.😭

Freddie, I am very happy that Michael Jagdesh “MJ” will carry on your name, and that you are there watching over him. You can rest in peace now Freddie and know that you will be with us always.

This was my first time sitting with Freddie and playing dominoes... before I was fortunate to have him as a father-in-law. I remember taking this game very seriously and had to show him that I can play lol. Freddie’s love for his family and friends was evident to everyone that met him, and his memory lives on through all of us that know and love him. 

I remember my cousin, Freddy from when he stayed at us a few times when I was little.  What I remember mostly was his kind smile.  He always had a smile for everyone.  He was a very gentle, pleasant person.  You will be missed cousin.

In 2011 thereabouts Mammoo Freddy was admitted to the Male Medical Ward of GPHC, Guyana. His difficulty breathing and other ailments was so severe that he was hospitalized for a week. However, in true " Mammoo Freddy Style' he made friends with the entire ward,  and was soon everyone's buddy.  He assisted with fixing the lights and did other handy jobs , and at one point shared his bed in an overcrowded ward.  This is just one of the many examples that highlights the type of person he was . Even when he was ill he wanted to assist, he was selfless, kind,  amicable and lovable. He was a good human being . I will miss him. 

I’m still struggling to accept that my Dada is no longer with us. A true pillar to the Enterprise community, Dada Freddy was beloved and revered by all. He was best remembered as a giver: an individual who would go out of his way to provide for anyone by any means necessary; family or friend.  He was the confidant to my father, Kamo “Cakes”, a relationship that taught my brothers and I true friendship. My best memories are our conversations about our family history, our culture and his advice as I grew into a man. The legacy of Dada Freddy has left a shadow over our family  as we have lost a truly remarkable person.

I know fredie aka goose for many years he calls me  aunty  bee we shared  fuuny jokes when ever we see each other he's  allways  smiling and his laughter will be remembered  when he  greets me  he would  say aunty  bee wha story sey lol   freddie  i will miss you  untill.we meet again sleep in heavenly  peace  

Some funny dad quotes

“When madness beena share, you tek all and nah leff none fuh nonebady.” 
He was talking to mom about something. The two of them frequently joked with each other.

“Ah wha de ass ah go on hay” hands on his hips looking from Guinea pig cage to Guinea pig cage. 
(He’d only known about 1 Guinea pig and I’d suck and got 2 and put then in identical cages.)

“Wha all dis zed, zed and x, x ting?”
That time he bought himself the most hideous pair of jeans.


Freddie was a beautiful soul; he was loved by my entire family from the moment we met him.  One can never erase the warmth of his welcoming smile.  My mom (Aunty Leila) claimed him straightaway as her son.  She gleamed with joy every time she spoke of her Freddie.  
Freddie you will remain in our hearts forever.  The last time we saw you in Canada was sheer delight having the opportunity to chat and share a meal with you will bring us joy and comfort as we deal with your untimely passing.
May God grant your soul Moksha and may your forever and ever be a reflection of the wonderful person that brought so much joy to all those who knew you.
Godspeed dearest brother until we meet again🙏🕉️❤️


I’ve never known pain like this…I will miss you till the end of my days and I pray I will see you again one day. I love you always. 

In loving memory of Freddie, father, son, brother, friend, associate.
Ur sudden departure left a vaccuum,  a shock to all and a void in  the many lives u touched.
Rest in peace , Brother.
