At an early age, he accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior and joined Brown Chapel Baptist Church, in Montezuma, Georgia. Freddie later joined the membership of Saving Grace Christian Church, Riverdale, Georgia under the leadership of Pastor Jarrod Haugabook where he served as a Deacon. He was an upright Christian man that loved the Lord. He was the epitome of dedication and a great supporter of every facet of the church that he loved so well. “Servant of God well done”
He was employed with General Motor Company and worked various positions and after 32 years of dedicated services he retired in 2008.
Freddie was well known for his heartfelt concern and love for others, often putting others before himself. He knew no strangers, once he met you, he never forgot you. He poured out his love unselfishly to his family and friends. His family was his pride and joy. There was nothing he wouldn’t do for you for his love was unconditional.
On Wednesday, December 2, 2020 Deacon Freddie James Haugabook departed his life. “A precious one from us is gone; a voice we love is still, a place is vacant in our hearts, that can nevermore be filled.”
