Freida accepted Christ and united with Sunlight Missionary Baptist Church where she was a faithful and very active member for several decades. She served on the Pastor’s Aide Committee, Adult Choir and the Church Outreach & Communications Department. Freida was well-known in the tri-city for serving as Soloist and Mistress-of-Ceremony for numerous functions/occasions.
Freida was an outstanding Cook. She enjoyed displaying her prepared dishes and entertaining family members and friends. She took pride in home decorating and caring for her many beautiful plants.
