Good morning my dear.

Forever in my heart. I love and miss you so very much.
Your soothing voice, your laughter and your amazing smile.

You walk with me everyday, so my life continues with the precious memories of you Aunt Freddie.

Janice

Sharing in your sadness as we remember Aunt Freddie. Sending healing prayers and comforting hugs.

The last  time we spoke was in 2013 at the family reunion in Baltimore.  We talked about her pretty Cadillac and that she was still driving at 87 and taking no medications....only supplements.  A life well lived. Rest in peace Aunt Freddie!

My condolences to Aunt Freddie's daughters, Brenda and Gina. Aunt Freddie was a very classy, gracious lady who loved her family. She will be missed by all who loved her. I will always remember her as the queen of the Robert's girls!

May the Love of God, the Love of Peace, the sincerity of family ties and the memories of jokes with laughter be the tradition that you shared that we carry on.  I'll never forget dancing at the family reunion in D.C. that you hosted and your reaction when I broke out of my shell.  And you teasing me with love afterwards. You were always light hearted and fun. May God comfort your Spirit. Love you Always ❤️.      Daryl

From your Nephew Mark "Patrick"  Wilkins. I love you Aunt Freddie. You are a wonderful woman who will always be remembered with the warmest of Sentiments and Love. To Brenda, Gina, Melton and the entire family. My heart is with you all. God Bless!

I want to express my condolence to the family, my Aunt Francine, and my extended family of cousins. "My Aunt Freddie" as we all called her, was an incredible person. She was a mentor, a stylist, and expected us to achieve. She tolerated no excuses. She had strong family values, loved to laugh, and carried herself as a lady. I can remember getting packages when I was 10 years old of things, she knew I needed. She always had a hand in my life. After graduation I would visit and make my way to the White House or the Capital and come back with tales for her and Uncle Gene to enjoy. During one visit I brought a school mate who was immediately captured by Aunt Freddie’s sense of presence. She and many of my friends would frequently inquire, "How is Aunt Freddie”, as they too came to know her through my many tales of our family reunions, and phone conversations about current events. After my mother died, she stepped right in and provided comfort, and guidance making sure that I exercised, ate healthy foods, and always reminded me that I’m young gifted and Black. She as well as my other aunts, taught us to be strong women who weren’t afraid to speak up and use our voices. Today, even though her voice is silent, we’re well equipped to carry on her legacy. Farewell Aunt Freddie, until we meet again. 

Freddie, MY SISTER, God has seen it befitting and no other way than me having you and you having me all my life.
Our sisterhood has stood the test of time. 
We have been blessed and I am blessed for all the smiles, the joys, good and not so good times, the family reunions, our children, our tennis talks and To Have YOU FOR JUST BEING YOU.

FREDDIE ROBERTS CLARK I LOVE YOU

FRANCENIA ROBERTS WILKINS

My Aunt Freddie, always in a good mood and to me always seeing the good side of many of things.  When we talked the sound of her voice was always cheerful and we would laugh together.  Aunt Freddie made you feel good moving forward.

Oh my, the summers I spent many of my childhood growing up is truly unforgettable and all those memories will always be engrained in the very fabric of my life.

Aunt Freddie, I can feel you in my very soul and that you will always be with me for the very thought of you will continue to make me smile and bring me joy

I have spent 50 plus years enjoying watching football with my mother.  She has always been a Redskin fan. When  the name of the team was changed,  I immediately sent her a new tee- shirt.  During these last few months we had spent so much time watching her favorite team play.  SHE WORE IT PROUDLY!!

My condolences to the family.  My Aunt Freddie was very special to me. When I called she would say I  feel special today because u called  me she would say I made her day. She is having a family reunion that she wanted.  So rest auntie you have  gained your wings. I will miss our talks. I have a necklace that you gave me for taking care of  my parents. I will wear it and think of you.   Peace & Love till we meet again.

Scripture says Weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning.  My deepest sympathy to you, Gina, and your family in the lost of your BEST FRIEND your mom!

My deepest sympathy to Brenda Staton and family for the loss of your dear mother.    According to Psalm 116:15, “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.”  A mother is a treasure, and as you grieve your tremendous loss, I believe that Heaven is on your side.  May God comfort you during your bereavement.

Hello family, 
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. We will miss her dearly.  Pray that God provides you the comfort and peace needed to get through the days ahead. 
With love & sincerest condolences,
Cousin Shontilia Guy

The other love of her life was Marcus Garvey Guy, who she was with for 40 years until his death in 2020.  Marcus treated my mom with such love and respect and considered my family to be his family.  We loved him and considered him as a member of our family.  There were days when I watched my mom stare out the window with a sadness in  her eyes.  Now she with her loved ones again.

My mom had 2 loves in her life!  The first was my father, Eugene Clifton Clark, whom she met in Asheville, NC as a young girl.  Dad came to DC to join the Navy and Mom followed him and soon after they got married January 8, 1944.  It's been a long time and now there are together.

The other love of her life was Marcus Garvey Guy.  They were together for 40 years until his death in 2020.  Marcus treated my mother with such love and respect and we loved him even more for doing so.  I would watch mom stare out the window and know she was remembering him and the many adventures they shared.   

THE JOKES ON YOU!
My sister, Brenda, and her friend, Wanda, went to the Dollar Store and brought this $5 hat as a joke for my mother.  When she opened the box, she squealed, put it on her head and as you can see "SHE WEARS IT WELL!"
