Missing my friend so much!! I thank God for Rev. McKellar. For he was a good person and a true friend to me. I thank him so much for taking my son on the road with him to Revivals and other programs. It was truly a blessing. To Sis. McKellar and my sweet baby girl, my prayers are with you always for strength during this trying time. As McKellar and i would always say "Don't Start Counting Your Friends Til You're All The Way Down".....i will miss singing with you...So many fun memories.

To The McKeller Family, You have suffered a great loss and Jehovah feels your pain and for that I am truly sorry . Psalms 145: 18,19 says " Jehovah is near to all those calling on him,... " Verse 19 says " He hears their cry for help and he rescues them." Almighty God will help you through your pain as he has helped me with my losses. Please rely on his tender care.

Pastor McKeller and the entire congregation of Ebenezer Baptist Church blessed me a few years ago by allowing me to help with a Bible School program. McKeller's voice and kindness will never be forgotten. I am honored to have known him and am praying for the family, friends and congregation.

To The family of The Late Edward McKellar, know that he will be truly missed by The Felton Chapel Church family and by myself. His preaching and singing, ( Unity and New Creation ) will never be forgotten. He was the true definition of a friend. Our prayers and hearts are with you in your time of loss.

To Shandra and your family, you don't know or have ever met me but I have met a few of your siblings: Oren, Fred, Brodrerick, Mart, Wylonda, and your Dad Mr. Freeman, the Patriarch of the family, know that you all are in The Frazier Family's prayers. To have never met you but for you to know that you are an extension of my family because Oren is an extention of my Family. As you know, that "There is never a Loss of those that is in Christ Jesus." And Jesus promised He will never leave or forsake us and that is why He sent the Holy Ghost to Comfort Us, so take thought that the Holy Spirit will Comfort You All in times like these. God Bless and We Love You all.
