Our deepest sympathies for your loss to The Freeman Family. All our love, Alison and Helen Ramsey

Our deepest condolences Kim, Scott, Tammy and families. Our sorrow for each of you, is in missing the time you spent together. But our Rejoicing with you far outweighs our sadness. Both Dutch and Yvonne left such beautiful legacy's behind. You all have much to be so humbly proud of. We are among the many who were blessed by them, and the entire Freeman family, countless times during our 25 yrs at ERBC. Dutch and Yvonne were steadfast in their love for Christ, one another, each of you, and all...

So many memories. Playing Triominos with him and Yvonne, having dinner together, his sense of humor, hugs, cards and just spending time together. Thank you Kim, Scott and Tammy for sharing your dad, mom and Craig with us. Always on our minds, always in our hearts.

We have fond memories of the entire Freeman family in our association at Edmundson Road Baptist Church. We are saddened in the loss of Dutch but we can rejoice in the reunion with Yvonne and Craig.

It's sad to hear of Dutch's passing. He was a rock among men, an inspiration to us all. I remember so many great ways he worked at ERBC and helped to shape it into the great church it was. We all remember volleyball and tennis with Dutch. He did love to compete. I'll bet he is having a glorious time in heaven, fellowshipping with other fine churchmen and women from ERBC. How we loved him!

Some of our sweet memories of ERBC include Dutch and Yvonne Freeman and their family. They were always there and supporting their church. Solid as a rock. God bless you and give you strength in this time.

Our deepest sympathy and thoughts. The Freeman family not only touched our lives through Edmundson Road Baptist Church (I especially remember Don clearing the steps and sidewalks of snow in the winter and sweeping up the flies in the foyer of the church), but also through various family members' involvement with Missouri Baptist Children's Home. Blessings on you all.

Don & Yvonne Freeman were pillars of ERBC and they touched so many lives (youth & adults) with good leadership, fun, hospitality, much love and Christian Fellowship. Precious memories ... what a wonderful legacy for their earthly family! Both Don & Yvonne are now with their Heavenly Family & will greet us when we return to our Heavenly Home Our thoughts & prayers are with you during these difficult days. God Bless you, we love you!!!
