Freddie Langston Meherg age 85 of Winfield, Alabama passed away peacefully on Tuesday, December 2, 2025 at Rose Manor in Haleyville, Alabama. Freddie was born on July 27, 1940 to Roy and Mary Langston. She is survived by her children, Tim Meherg (Peggy); Lisa Burgess (Wade); Lori Jenkins (Mike); Grandchildren, Erica Michel (Anthony); Mason Meherg (Hope); McKinly Meherg (Jana); Mary Melton (Hunter); Kent Jenkins (Kourtney); Luke Jenkins; Major Meherg; 9 great grandchildren; and sisters Linda West and Martha Allen (John). She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband, Jim, a precious, gentle soul, whom she was married to for 55 years. She cherished her family, especially her children and grandchildren. She took great pride in her grandchildren and found immeasurable joy in their presence. She possessed a determined spirit and a steadfast independence that guided her throughout her life.

She loved singing, planting and growing her own flowers, and had the only green thumb in the family. She was known for her famous dill pickles which the grandchildren devoured by the quarts on summer spend the night gatherings.

Her greatest passion was teaching high school and college English which she did for over 20 years. She touched the lives of countless students whom she spoke fondly of for many years.

One of her greatest loves was reading, as she was an avid reader of every genre, especially biographies and those of historical value.

She was a devout Christian and loved her church and choir, singing countless hymns for her church family for many years. She and her family attended Winfield First United Methodist Church, and in later years Harmony Grove Baptist Church.

She loved telling stories of her treasured times with her family, in particular her Wayside cousins, and remained close with many of them throughout the years. She also treasured her sisters, nieces, and nephews.

She had a love for traveling and enjoyed many adventures with her husband in retirement.

She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to a local library, Old Union Cemetery, or Winfield Alumni Association. A private family graveside service will be held at a later date.  

We would like to express our eternal gratitude to all of the staff and caregivers at Azalea Manor of Haleyville, Rose Manor (who took such wonderful care of her), and Southeast Hospice Network of Jasper.
