Frederick was born August 16, 1968, in Swainsboro, to the late Charles Seabrough and Mary Stephens Hall. He was a devoted father, loving family man, and respected member of his community. Frederick lived a life defined by strength, love, and unwavering dedication to those he cared about most.
As a father, Frederick was more than a provider — he was a wise man. He believed in teaching through experience. Frederick shared his life lessons openly, wanting his children to learn from his journey so they would not have to stumble the same way he once did. His guidance wasn’t just advice; it was protection, preparation, and love in its purest form. Frederick understood that true fatherhood meant being present — not only in the good times, but in the difficult ones too. He spoke with wisdom, corrected with care, and loved without condition. Frederick’s words carried weight because they came from lived experience, and his children knew that everything he said was rooted in a desire to see them succeed. His legacy is one that will never fade. Frederick’s love was so genuine and so consistent that it became part of his identity. That is why he was known as “Freddy Love.” It wasn’t just a nickname — it was who he was. His spirit of laughter, light, and unconditional love will continue to live on through his children, his family, and every life he touched. Mr. Seabrough is preceded in death by his parents; stepdad, Larry Hall; and brothers, Daron Stephens and Nicholas Hall.
Mr. Seabrough is survived by three sons, Frederick Seabrough, Jr. of Statesboro, Cedrick Seabrough (Amy) and Daron Coleman, both of Swainsboro; five brothers, Charles Seabrough (Tonya),Victor Hall, Audrereus Mosely-Hall, Terrell Sherrod, all of Swainsboro and Calvin Seabrough (Jennifer) of Uvalda; four sisters, Deidra Seabrough (Robert), Marilyn Sherrod, both of Swainsboro, Andrea Brown (Ronald) of Atlanta and Shakeyra Hall of Conyers; special friend, Shameka Coleman; and a host of nieces, nephews and friends.
