I was very sadden to hear of Uncle Freddy’s passing.. He has left us behind with memories that fill our hearts❤️ you are gone but will never be forgotten❤️ Rest In Peace Uncle❤️ I will forever carry you in my heart♥️
To My Family,
As a kid growing up playing baseball, and Dad as my coach (Robert) you could always count on Uncle Freddy to stop in every once in awhile. A funny memory I have of Uncle is warming up before a game and Freddy helping, but what we didn’t tell Dad was it was more of a game of keep away from my Dad! LOL We were all in on the little joke the team and I. Dad would holler to Feddy to throw him the ball. Well if you know us “Kams” we are not very tall people, so that ball always got thrown just that little bit higher then Dad could reach! LOl.. Well think Dad caught on and the chase was on. LOL Then it began to be a game of football! Now like I said Kams are not very tall and short in the legs. My Dad and Uncle would look absolutely hilarious chasing each other on the ball field then one would tackle the other and now it became a wrestling match! LMAO…So with that said my game of ball taught us sportsmanship, taught us to have fun with a keep away game, and who knew that baseball was a sport of many other sports combined! Hahaha😂😂
Uncle Freddy you will be missed by many, and remembered by lots… Rest in Peace ❤
