Big Fred, you know how I’ve struggled growing up and just having y’all so close to home really benefitted me.  Anna was another mother she used to always make sure I ate and watched anything I wanted on the tv in the kitchen.  Y’all’s house was my home away from home. When I struggled to sleep your home was melatonin. I love you Big Fred and I’ll forever hold you and Anna in my heart.  Anna will rest in power !

Mrs. Anna was a special person! She will be sorely missed.! Through her, I have learned many of life’s lessons. To Big Fred continue to stay strong and you are a true example of a husband, father, grandfather, uncle, cousin and friend. Thank you for always being that forever present person caring for others beyond yourself. To the entire family we stand with you on this journey and we keep you in our thoughts and prayers,  love always Glo

Fred, I am so sorry for your loss.  Anna was a beautiful person with a personality to match. I will miss her smiling face. May God comfort you in your hour of need 🙏. 


Anna was more family than friend to me. She was a valuable blessing in my life. Together we survived SW Bell, AT&T, and Delta Airlines. Both of us honestly enjoyed reaching retirement status. Anna loved her family. On any given Saturday many years ago, you would always see her and Mrs. Ruby shopping at Ridgmar Mall. As the primary caregiver for each of her family members, she made many sacrifices. Anna was fortunate to have an abiding and supportive husband. Fred, thank you for loving my friend in sickness and in health. 
Always in my heart, 
Ann Martin
