“Aunt Freda” as she was affectionately called was born in the Clausen Community of Florence County, the daughter of the late Namon Robinson and Melvina Robinson.

Aunt Freda was a long-standing member of New View Baptist Church in New York, New York where she was the Pianist and very active in the different ministries. She loved her church home dearly and they loved her just as much if not more. 

“So with you: Now is your time of grief, but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.”  John 16:22

She was preceded in death by her sisters, Ella Robinson Madison and Josephine Robinson McWhite; and a brother, Namon Robinson. She was also preceded by a niece, Myrtle Alvarez-Beard; and two nephews, Willie James Madison, Jr. and Roger Dale Madison.
