Sorry for your lost I will always love you and your family

Sending my deepest, heartfelt condolences to the Degree Family. I first knew Freddy when I was very young...my daddy song with Freddy with the original Five Stars of Shelby.Later on in life I worked with Freddy at Cone Mills/Cliffside plant.He taunt me many things at work and life in general. He was truly a Godly/God fearing man and he will be sorely missed.May God Bless you 🙏 ❤️ all now and in the difficult days ahead with his peace and comfort that beats all understanding..AMEN!

I am forever grateful that Amarius had multiple moments with great granddaddy Degree. The look in his eyes when he got to see his great grandson at 16 was priceless. It was an impromptu visit during the holidays, I'm glad I snapped photos. I pray that your life and legacy live on forever more, through the generations coming after you. My condolences to the Degree family. I'm glad my son is of greatness. Well done, great granddaddy, well done. Love, Aleana Jones

A MAN OF GREAT STATURE AND PEACE

To Della, her children, Gloria, Frederick, Reginald, Angie, Sonya, all the grandchildren and greatgrands. I pray God will keep each of you during your time of grief. We want you to know we love you and we are praying for God to hold you in His loving arms. And when you miss Freddie, your husband, father, grandfather, brother the MOST. May the Lord, then cover you with His peace and love, holding you even closer in His loving arms. One of my fondest thoughts about Freddie, is how he lived the life of a godly man wherever he went. When you met him, you knew you were around a man of integrity because he revealed so many godly characteristics.

He had great Perseverance and patient like Joshua. He Focused on God's Word and would talk about his Savior, Jesus Christ, in an instance. He was not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Freddie's generosity is such a reflection of who he was...whether he offered you words of encouragement, or a place to lay your head or a plate full of food to fill your belly you felt the generosity in so many ways. He was a humble, honest and very a warm communicator. Whether you were talking with him about Jesus Christ, his favorite football team (alright Washington), or just about life...you always walked away with some nugget of wisdom. He was a very genuine and peaceful man too. You can tell he spent time in God's presence, because whenever you were around him, there was this atmosphere of peace. This world was a better place because of Freddie's life and love for Christ.

This scripture I hope will bring a comfort and a smile to all our faces when we think of Freddie being home with the Lord:

James 1:12 "Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him."

Brother-in-law, we miss you, but Christ wanted you home and I know you are rejoicing, singing and wearing your crown well on the other side of eternity.

Praying for you family and love you much!

Love Cheryl Degree and Family

A BROTHER'S LOVE NEVER CEASES

To Della, Gloria, Frederick, Angie, Reginald, Sonia and their entire family,

My family will continue praying for you. I love my oldest brother, Freddie Degree. He was a godly man who truly trusted his Heavenly Father first and then he had a great love for his family and people in general. He was respected by many who knew him and was friendly to everyone he met. In my years of knowing him, I never heard or seen him get angry towards anyone and I can say this confidently, as his youngest brother. Freddie encouraged all to give their lives to Christ and live right for God. He loved quartet music and sung in gospel bands and choirs...both semi-professionally, but mostly as a natural worshipper...Freddie had a beautiful tenor voice, which he used often to worship his Heavenly Father. Freddie was ready to go home and slept peacefully until he passed from this life into eternity. One of the things I loved about Freddie was spending time with him when we came into town and seeing him in action. His kindness was always on display, and he always made sure you were taken care of first. He always fed you and you never went hungry around him. A brother's love never ceases, and we will continue to pray for the Degree family..., we will especially lift up our sister-in-law, Della, Freddie's children Gloria, Frederick, Angie, Reginald and Sonia, along with all of the grandchildren and great grandchildren. We love you all sooo much! Stay Encouraged! I believe this scripture would be his last words to all of us; Mark 8:31 – 33 Family please read this and pass it to on to the next generation. Love

Alfred Degree and Family

I worked with Freddie on 2nd shift in the Card room at Cliffside. Freddie taught me so much about leadership and how to treat individuals who I was assigned to supervise. That was in 1983/84, and I still hold our time together as dear. Carson
