I appreciated his honesty, integrity and devoted time here on earth to helping others, he will be missed very much. Heaven has opened its arms and he has comfort in God's grace. He will always be one of my favorite genuine human beings.
Ever since that day, almost 20 years ago, Fred has treated me and my wife like family. In fact, I recall one specific time Fred counseled me from a father's perspective before telling me he was now going to put on his accountant hat. Fred's counseling was appreciated! I always tried to learn from his advice and recommendations. Although there was one consistent correction we shared over the years...I always called him Mr.Adams. Fred would stop me in my tracks and say "my grandkids call me Fred. How many times do I have to tell you to call me Fred?" We would chuckle but it was always out of respect for Fred.
Fred, I will always be so grateful for all your caring advice and direction over the years. May you rest in Heaven with our Loving God. I pray God will protect and comfort your family on earth. Until we meet again, God bless you...I love you, Mr.Adams!
He was a rare gentleman and he will be missed by myself and many others. I always reminded him that he was the "only IRS agent" that I ever trusted enough to speak to "on the record".
Rest in peace, my friend.
I can say none of us will ever forget him.
Our Condolences,

Fred and Irene are the example of grace, mercy that God has bestowed upon us all.
Irene and immediate family peace be with you from God the Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. You will be reunited with him for all eternity when Jesus returns!
God Bless Everyone!
I am sad beyond words to learn of Fred's passing. He was the kindest, most generous, caring, and faithful man I know. Besides being the best accountant in the world, Fred helped me tremendously over many years. We got to know each other well and talked about our families, challenges, joys, and faith. When I called him recently, we talked about my Mom's recent death and he took time to ask me about her, how I was doing, and said he would pray for us both (which I'm confident he did).
I am so sorry for your pain losing such an amazing husband, father, grandfather, brother, etc. I was honored and blessed to know Fred and will miss him. I am praying for all of you - for strength and guidance on your grieving journey. God bless you!

I am so sorry for the loss of your precious father to this terrible pandemic. It is maddening to loose people this way and I’m so sorry for all of you.
I hope you feel the love and prayers that I and so many others are sending up for your family. I remember Fred speaking at Bible study many times always enjoyed watching the special love and bond you shared with your parents as a family on those days. His admiration for you was as abundant and clear as yours for him. They set a beautiful example and raised a beautiful daughter who is very deeply loved. That you for sharing his gift with me and so many others. ️
RIP Fred... Roll Tide! I know you will be watching the game tonight from Heaven!

I am so very sorry for the loss of your beloved husband. Please know that you are in my prayers. May God bless you at this difficult time and give you strength to cope.
Do not hesitate to call me night or day, for any reason. Our Lord is watching over Fred for eternity now and he is beyond pain at last. Fred will be forever remembered as a gentle soul who lived and worked quietly In this crazy world and yet impacted so many souls they can never all be counted. Some people say they care and or they will pray for you. Fred actually did both. May God Bless all of you in these dark days, but remember Fred remains in all of your hearts and memories .
