Honored that the United States Chess Federation has listed in their "in passing" section:

" Fred Allums, Jr. - Sacramento, California passed at age 91.
We are offering this area of our website to recognize and remember our members who have passed on. We build this category as our members who have passed on deserve to be remembered."
They also included his obituary.
Fred was loved by the Charles Allums family.. After the death of their mother, Canzater, his brother Charles continued the tradition of family support meetings on special occasions.
When Charles died, Vangi, Candi and I continued gathererig at meals,discussing issues of the day and observing chess games between Fred and Chuck with Fred usually winnin

Our lives were enriched by Fred's math and philosophical challwbges . We grieve over the loss of him.
​​​​​Letter of Condolences
TO: THE FAMILY OF FRED D. ALLUMS, JR. (Buddy), CLERGY FRIENDS and TO ALL of MY FATHER’S CHILDREN.

FROM: JESSE H., JESSIE M., IRA, ADRIENNE, NICK, NITA WALLER and FAMILIES, ALSO, CARLTON and TERI DUNCAN.

“Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal”
We extend our prayerful support during this time of bereavement. We find the promises of our Savior to be most comforting during these times. Thus we write to encourage your heart with reminders of His Word. May it comfort you to know that the Lord promised to prepare an eternal home for all who love and serve Him. His words of departure remind us that in his father’s house there are many mansions. Be confident that your loved one is resting and rejoicing in the father’s house. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.
While we could not be there in person we wanted you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. We desired to be there, but were not able. The Waller and Duncan Families extend our love and ongoing support to you and your family.
We admonish you to celebrate with your loved one knowing that death of a believer is in a sense a promotion from labor to reward. The Apostle Paul teaches that “to live is Christ and to die is gain”. Therefore, do not weep only but rejoice and again I say rejoice for the promises of God are sure and certain.
Finally, we know that your thoughts and reflections of times shared with your loved one will in days to come replace your tears with a smile afforded by memory. We encourage you to also look forward to that glad day when we shall all meet again.
“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away”. Revelations 21:4.
Prayerfully Submitted With Our Love,

JESSE H. WALLER
To all the family of Uncle Buddy, Fred Allums, let me send out my most sincere condolences to all my Cousins, Aunties, and Uncles who share in my lost for our dear family member. He is in a happier place now with his Mother, Father, brothers, and sisters. We can celebrate his life and all the beautiful people who were brought into this world to be his family. May he rest in peace with his love ones and may all of you find comfort in this moment knowing that Uncle Buddy lived a full and productive life. He had a beautiful smile that he has successfully passed on to his love ones. May peace and love guide you through these dark hours. When you miss your love one look to the light as it hits the water and say a prayer for him, and he will be there with you. You are never alone.

Buddy was such a smart and intelligent man. We spent hours talking about his scientific and metaphysical endeavors. He was a philosophical man. We talked forever about the accomplishments of the ancient Egyptians. He had many profound ideas
He was an accomplished well known professional bowler often bowling 12 strikes on a row. He could not be beat.
Often seen wearing his Nasa hat or shirt, he was also a professional chess player. Buddy was called Buddy because he was everyone's friend. I know he is with the Ancient Egyptians on his way to visit Andromeda with his God's in the After Life
Buddy is one of the Gods now on to his next adventure.

Dear Uncle Buddy: I will miss not seeing and talking to you about life in general. Very smart man at everything we would discuss. Always a smile whenever I'd see you, nothing but a positive attitude. You always saw the good in people even if they disappointed you. Your in a heavenly place with your parents brothers, and sisters. Enjoy your after life in eternity as we will see each other one day. I will remember all the things you told me about, no more pain of the earth because you were God Blessed. Your spirit will live on in all here on earth. Candy
