I remember Bill back to the Boy Scouts. He was a born leader he served as Sr. Patrol leader while I was a lowly Tenderfoot. Always admired him and am sorry I never told him.

As an alum of OCHS, I had the privilege of being a student of Mr Freeman (even after all these decades, he's still 'Mr" Freeman.)
He was a dedicated professional, full of enthusiasm for life, passion for his subject and compassion for his students.

My Dad,Carl Nissen, had a lot of great friends. Bill was the best of the best. He always made an effort to be my friend too. He was a great man and I miss him.

I remember Bill as the most positive, friendly person you would ever want to meet. He was a wonderful friend and is already missed.

A classmate at OCHS class of '62 led me to this obituary for an unforgettable teacher. I will always remember his classes as full of laughter, strong classmate opinions, and fleeting moments. I am very thankful that he provided such a wonderful environment of learning!

God called home 2 great cousins within days of each other-My cousin Bill and brother Ed-RIP sweet men-you both did the Freeman family proud

So sorry to hear of your loss. You may not remember me.I am a daughter of Helen Evans, second cousin to Willy.

I remember the friendly and talented Bill Freeman from the years we both sang in the West Linn Presbyterian Church choir. My best to you Evelyn.
