I've always loved his song "Blonde Hair and Green Eyes".  My condolences to the family.  Apologize for the belated entry as I only ran across this news of his passing today. 

I am just now hearing of the loss of Fred Bible. I knew him as a martial arts teacher and although i only studied under him for a short time i saw that he had much to offer. I am sorry for your loss Melissa.

Thinking of you today Dad on your birthday. Hope the Angels made you your favorite cake!

This day will always be etched in my mind and have a special place in my heart. To honor and remember my Dad and rejoice with all the memories of how wonderful of a Father he was. One year ago this day, my Dad's suffering ended as he met our Savior Jesus and entered his Heavenly Home. Thinking about you Daddy and the year that has now past, rejoicing in your Home Coming but miss you.

Today is a very special day as our Dad, Fred Bible Jr. is celebrating his first birthday in Heaven with Jesus today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you Daddy! May everyone who knows and loves you celebrate this day of your birth.

To the family of Fred Bible:  No one there knows me but I know Fred from his music.  I collect 45's from the 50's & 60's and I am fortunate to have the 45's he released.  You just need to listen to "Blond Hair & Green Eyes" and realize he had a great voice given to him by God.  Although this entry is greatly belated, I pray that God has given the family, "The Peace That Passes All Understanding".  In addtion, take comfort in knowing HE will never leave or forsake us.  My prayers are with you.  Ronnie Salyer

Hello Family and Friends, well as you know today is the 18th and it has been 3 months today that he has been gone from us but home with Jesus.  His first holidays in Heaven have come and past by. Those days without him here were hard for us but surely the most amazing time for him celebrating in Heaven! I can imagine him singing with the Angels. ~ Wishing all a Happy New Year, as we remember him.

I did not get the chance to know Fred, but I am so sorry to hear about him passing. I am a very good friend of Katherine's who I had lost touch with. My prayers for her and the family.

Katherine & Jan - What a blessing it was for me to have served you both and your beloved Fred in his last days. I will always think of him when I think about Alaska or bears in the wild! He was a fighter until the end & gained strength from the wonderful love & care you both showered on him daily. I hope you will be comforted by all of the special memories of your time together and the knowledge that he has been made whole again and dwells in the house of his Heavenly Father. 
Best Wishes to you and yours -

All my love and prayers to all our wonderful family and friends, as we remember him.

It has been one month today Daddy that you have made that journey to your enternal home. I have thought about you everyday, wondered what you were doing and I have felt your presence around me. I have read in your Bible and found that the only verse you had highlighted was John 11:4 which says, When Jesus heard that, He said, "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the son of God may be glorified through it."  My Dad shared this verse with me many times. For this verse stands very true, I know Jesus was glorified many times through my Dad.  Daddy, During your service, Dr. Plank came up to share some words, he spoke of this exact chapter and verse.  I find that truely amazing.  Love you Daddy, miss you.

Master Bible as he was known to my husband Christopher and I and to the many, many martial artists whose lives he touched - his teachings, wisdom and heart will carry on in all of us. We/I will miss you so much sir. We offer prayers of strength and love to the entire Bible Family.

Katherine,
I am so sorry for your loss.  I feel honored to have known Fred.  He lived a full life, and was loved and admired. I did not know until the funeral that he also preached!
God bless you and Jan for being his advocate and caregivers.  You were his angels on earth.

My deepest sympathy for Fred's family. Katherine, your special relationship with Fred is what kept him going through all his tough times - you are a very special lady. Fred is now free of all pain and I hope he will become your guardian angel and my God give you comfort during this sad time.

Although I never have met you Frances, I have known your dad for most of my life, he and my brother were best of friends for a lifetime until Bob passed away 17 years ago.  We all grew up in the same neighborhood and your dad is like my brother.
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
Mary (Bowden) Dickson

I will always remember Fred and his love for Pecan Pie during my visits. Wishing lots of love to you and your Mom.

Katherine, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. 

You loved and cared for your husband 'til the end. God will bless you for your efforts.

God Bless you,

Katherine, 
   We are so sorry for your great loss. We are so sad Uncle Fred is gone but so thankful he is no longer in pain. May God be close to your heart as you grieve his loss.

Freddy and Melissa, 
    We are so sad to have lost Uncle Fred. We have so many wonderful memories with him. Uncle Fred always had a smile and a hug for us! We know you are missing your father very much right now. We are so thankful that we will all see him again one day! Much love to you both! 
  Kristin Bible Claxton, Daniel and Grace

Fred is no longer in pain.  We can imagine him singing in heaven.
God bless you Katherine for your devotion to Fred.  And, God bless you,
Jan, for your wonderful caregiving to Fred.
                                                       
                   Freddie & Sue Bailey

"Did you ever know that you're my Hero?"  You were the best big-brother anyone could ever have.  Our loss is Heavens gain.  I am jealous, you won the race.

Love,

Robert

"But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve as do the rest who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus," 1 Thess 4.12-14

Fred had that very same hope in Jesus. We are saddened by his passing and we  will miss Fred's presence in our lives. We will shed tears because he is gone but intermixed with the tears of sorrow are tears of joy because Fred now stands before his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. This is not goodbye, but until we see your again.
 
For those of us that remain - may the God of Peace wrap each one in His loving arms. May the Comforter still our hearts and fill us with a love that cannot be shaken. In the words of the Apostle John, "Amen. Come Lord Jesus."

My thoughts and prayers are with you Katherine. May God give you peace.

Sorry for your loss. Your husband always had positive things to say when I visited his room. Lab staff member.

Katherine - I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your husband.  I hope that wonderful memories of good times together comfort you during this difficult period.

Fred please accept our condolences and prayers for your families loss.

I am very sorry for your loss Katherine. God Bless you and Fred.

To the family of Fred Bible and my dear friend Jan Lacy, you have my deepest sympthay. I am so sorry for your loss. Praise God that Fred is no longer in pain and is in the loving arms of our presious savior.

I cannot put into words how much love I have for my Dad, my heart is heavy at this time, but my faith in Jesus is stronger, which is carrying me through.  My Dad means the world to me, he has always been there for me, the absolute most wonderful, caring and giving Dad anyone could ever dream of having.
Daddy, seeing you go was the hardest experience of my life but knowing where you were going made it peaceful in my heart.  As I look up, I know you are there watching over us and will hear us calling out to you.  I hope those windows are big! I know you will wait for me at that gate just like we always talked about.  This is your beginning of eternity with Jesus, which I stand amazed just thinking about.  God's promise is good, which comforts me in knowing that I will see you again. Until then just know that I love you very much, always.  Your Loving Daughter, Melissa

I had the honor of being a caregiver for Fred for the past two years or so.  During this time we spent many moments talking, laughing, reminiscing, and, yes, even got angry at each other on many occasions.  Overall, I am so thankful I was able to do this for Katherine as, like her, I wanted him to be able to convalesce at home.  I miss you, Fred!  You were a great son-in-law to me.  My days will seem empty for a long time.  I pray that I can be of help to Katherine in her time of grief.
