AIDAN FREEMAN Obituary

FREEMAN, Aidan Michael Of Stoughton, passed away suddenly on March 7, 2021 at the age of 7 years after a courageous battle with Rett Syndrome. Beloved son of Tracy E. (Kerr) Freeman and Michael F. Freeman. Cherished brother of Abigail and Alexander Freeman. Grandson of Anne E. (Dudley) Kerr of Randolph, Frederick A. Freeman of Foxboro, and the late Richard H. Kerr and Elaine (Pitts) Freeman. Nephew of Richard Kerr and his wife Karole Rose Kerr of Easton, Christine Freeman of Foxboro, and his late Godfather Keith R. Kerr, and his late uncle James Freeman. Aidan is also survived by his loving cousins Lily, Ryan, Oliver, Bowdie, and Sawyer. Aidan was an outstanding young man. He lived life with a heart of pure love and overcame numerous obstacles. He was a member of the Kennedy Day School, where he excelled. He worked harder at life than any little boy should have to and he did it with a smile on his face. He was loved unconditionally by his family and friends. He was a light in this world and even in passing it can never be dimmed. Family and friends will honor and remember Aidan's life by gathering for a Funeral Mass in St. Margaret Church of St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish, 800 Columbia Rd., Dorchester, on Saturday morning, March 13, at 11 A.M. Burial will follow in Knollwood Memorial park in Canton. In lieu of flowers, donations in Aidan's memory may be made to www.rsangels.org for Rett Syndrome. For guestbook, please visit www.jmurphyfh.com. Arrangements by the Murphy Funeral Home, DORCHESTER.
