Even during sickness, he showed up. He worked. He cared. He kept fighting for people. That’s who Fred was — a man of courage, loyalty, and unwavering love for his community.I called him my mentor out of respect, but he was much more than that. He was a brother. A steady presence. A man whose wisdom guided me and whose friendship lifted me.Detroit lost a champion.DRMM lost a warrior.And I lost someone I truly loved and respected.Rest in power, Fred. Your legacy lives on in every life you touched. I will carry your light forward — always.”#RestInPeace #FredDurhalJr #DRMM #RestInPower
