Freddie was born and raised in Union Springs, Alabama, where he attended high school. He went on to work as a cotton broker for many years until he retired. He rarely ever missed a day of work and was deeply committed. When Freddie was not at work you were sure to see him working in his yard. He loved keeping his lawn manicured and mowed as well as tending in his vegetable garden. He also had a love for grilling to which he was sure to supply the family tailgating trips to Auburn Football games with his barbecue. Freddie found a love for going to the casino after his retirement. He had a great adoration for his pets, specifically dogs.
In honor of Freddie you may donate to the Montgomery Humane Society to celebrate his love for his pets.
A Celebration of Life will be held for Freddie at a later date.
