No better friend has anyone had in a lifetime than “Freddie” Tingle – so dear to everyone on the Mississippi Gulf Coast – She will be missed by so many friends- she opened her home to everyone – she and her Dad, Mr. Ryan, meant so very much to all her friends – she included him in everything – so sad to find out just tonight that she passed away in September – she loved the MS Gulf Coast so much, but accepted her destiny with dignity at the end of her life – with family, as it should be. Talked with her often, saw her last 2 yrs ago on her way back home to Michigan – such a dear, dear friend – a sister who accepted everyone and everthing in her life. So young at heart – Freddie, I can’t believe I can’t pick up the phone and talk to you about our lives – Thank you for so much for sharing so many memories – you will be missed so much – I love you, your friend always –
