Freddie McKay Dangerfield

Freddie McKay Dangerfield of Moncks Corner passed away July 30, 2026.

Born on January 21, 1943 in the old Moncks Corner hospital, he was the youngest son of Mose David and Lila Wise Dangerfield. He spent most of his childhood on their family farm near The Barrows community.

Freddie graduated from Berkeley High in 1961 and made a career as an outside salesman with Napa Auto Parts of Moncks Corner for nearly 40 years. He then worked for Berkeley Paper Company and his dear friend Stewart Driggers in his later years. He counted his customers and co-workers as valued friends.

Freddie was a man of devout Christian faith; and he was gifted with a warmth, sense of humor, and Christian love that genuinely reached and witnessed to others. A talented singer, he served for many years as music minister for First Christian Church and Ebenezer Methodist, where he also served as lay leader.

Freddie was preceded in death by his parents and his brothers Mose D. Jr. and Norris W. Dangerfield.

He is survived by his wife of 46 years, Gerrell Yates Dangerfield, his sons Mark (Beth) of Memphis, TN, David W. (Lauren) of Barnwell, and Philip of Goose Creek. Grandchildren, Madonna Nicole Dangerfield and Lila (Grant) Rogers of Louisville, KY and Lori Mae and Rowan Dangerfield of Barnwell.
