She was born in Canoe, Alabama, to Matthew and Rose Russell. In retirement, she loved to garden, especially roses, and she loved to shop! While her family grew large, she always enjoyed keeping in touch and up to date with everyones lives. She was especially proud of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Whether Mom, Aunt Freda, EE, Mawmaw, or simply Freda - she was a voice of comfort, or praise, and an ear to listen for many who loved her.
Freda is survived by her five children: Loren Duncan Jr., Teresa Trenck, Cheryl Minchew and husband John Minchew, Holly Duncan, and Laura Simmons and husband Frederic Simmons. She is also survived by eleven grandchildren: Loren, Brian, Andrea, Megan, Ryan, Sherri, Stephanie, Skylar, Jenna, Travis and Trevor; as well as seven great-grandchildren: Krista, Brayden, Brixton, Benjamin, Zachary, Julianna, Micah, Irie, and Naomi. Freda was loved by many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. She was dearly loved by many. Freda loved her church and her family.
She was our family matriarch and her presence will be greatly missed.
