Dr. Walter Fremont, 82, dean emeritus of BJU’s School of Education, went to be with the Lord Sunday morning, January 7, 2007. Dr. Fremont became dean of the School of Education in 1953 and served in that capacity for 37 years. During his tenure, he was a seminal force in the initiation and development of the Christian school movement. He was a well-known consultant and speaker on Christian counseling and the family and the author of several books. Diagnosed with Lou Gehrig’s disease twenty years ago, he will long be remembered for his courageous spirit.
Visitation will be held Monday evening, January 8, 2007, from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the War Memorial Chapel on the Bob Jones University campus. The funeral will be at 7 p.m. Tuesday., January 9, at Hampton Park Baptist Church in Greenville.
