Fredson Bairral De Lima passed from this life the afternoon of September 12th, 2016.  

Fredson was born to Marlene Bairral De Lima and Ezequias Cicero De Lima in his mother's home town of Itoacara, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.  

He was the first born with two younger sisters, Glaucia and Katiuscia. His formative years were spent in Itoacara surrounded by extensive family and many friends. At the age of 14, Fred moved to the United States with his family. He attended Neshaminy High School where he participated in many sports such as soccer, basketball, volleyball and gymnastics. He graduated in 1992 and attended Community College. Fred cultivated an extensive network of friends, co-workers and acquaintances that truly adored him for his outgoing and friendly personality. As a member of the Brazilian Baptist Church and Christian Life Center, his love for music and worship continued to grow. His passion for worship radiated whenever he sang or played the piano and drums. Fred made many friends in the youth group and remained active in his church community throughout his adult years. 

In 1998 Fred moved to the Poconos after meeting Catrina Kleish. They fell in love, dated, moved to Virginia, and married in 2004. They worked hard, bought a house, started a family and a business. All three daughters Alexi, Emma and Ayva were born in Virginia. In 2015, they moved back to Pennsylvania to be near family. He started a painting business and continued his landscaping business in Philadelphia suburbs soon after moving back. 

He worked hard to provide for his family and to make a future for them. Fred loved soccer, volleyball, everything Brazilian and the Philadelphia Eagles, but his treasure was his three girls. He liked to make people laugh and he had an infectious smile and personality he had a sincere faith and relationship with God said will be missed. With CertaPro, Fred embodied their values. He delivered what he promised always working hard to do things right; he respected the individual by always treating people right; he had pride in what he did and always practiced continuous improvement, eager to learn and get better at delivering quality paint jobs and delivering extraordinary experiences. We will miss him dearly. 

Fred passed away at the age of 43 and leaves behind his wife and 3 young daughters.

Please find it in your heart to help support his family through this very difficult time.
