James Earle Fredell - Online Memorial Website

My condolences, as feelings of pain and bitterness become unbearable. It is my desire to convey a comforting thought based on the Holy Scriptures

Dear Jim,

I am sorry about your loss.  I hope you, Monica and your family are doing well in spite of your loss.  Based on the photographs and the condolences, your father seemed like a good person.  If the son is any reflection of the man, then I know your father was a great person.  I surely miss seeing you and Monica when visiting upstate New York.  Spending personal time with your family made an otherwise routine trip something special.  Again, I’m sorry for your loss.

Sincerely,

Tom

Dear Fredell Family--

Though I never knew Jim the elder, I have come to both know and love Jim the younger, and his wife, Monica, during their time at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Saratoga Springs. If it's true that "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree" I should say that I truly regret that my home is so far from Peoria, as I believe I would have been blessed to know Jim the elder in this life. This is why I am glad that God has made provision for me to come to know him in the life to come -- and if that is indeed a possibility there, I'll make a point of doing so. 

Meanwhile, I am praying that God would bring a deep comfort to all of you who are mourning, that He would dry your tears, call to your minds the lovely and joyful things that made Jim dear to you, and turn your eyes forward to the glorious future we have together -- the gift of a vibrant, peaceful, healthy, happy, eternal life with all the saints and angels in the presence of Jesus, who died and rose that we might have life, to the fullest, forever.


With warmest and kindest regards,

We were very sad to hear of Jim's passing. He was such a good guy and we enjoyed chatting with him at the RiverPlex and talking Cardinal baseball. He will be missed by many.

June,

So sorry to read about your dad's passing.  I know it isn't a easy thing to lose a parent at any time.  I don't believe I met your dad more than once or a couple of times, but remember him as a outgoing and happy man, I know that he will be missed by all that knew him.  Thoughts and prayers to the whole family. 

So sorry to hear about Jim's passing. He was a very friendly person. You have so many Great Memories with him. May he rest in Peace. GOD be with your Family in this time of sorrow!!

Beryl and Family,
While we've only met Jim in the past 6 months at River Plex, we feel fortunate to have enjoyed his caring and friendly personality . We know he will be missed by us and many others.

So sorry to hear about the loss of Jim.  He will be missed at church as he was always there to greet everyone.  Our prayers are with the family.

So very sorry for your loss.  Jim was such a wonderful, compassionate man and will be missed greatly.  I will never forget his kindness, encouragement, and acceptance at all times.  I am sure God is saying welcome home to my good, faithful servant.  Praying for all of you during this time of loss and for God's peace to touch each of you!
