Paul Joseph Freedman

My late son Paul, and I, had a special connection, that pales what other people have said! We shared Everything, our thoughts, our hopes and dreams, our Folk music, and most of all , our Values! I carried my son, under my heart for 9 months, and Paul always said to me" Mom, your my flesh and blood". So true!

I worked with Paul at the ritz diner , and we had a special bound
I left for a better opportunity and the only thing that really upsets me is that if I was with paul at the ritz none of this would have happened .
Somehow the stress of work can become over whelming but you have to be strong.
WE talked about going to meetings and we had little pep talks before work.
I wish I could have saved him from the anguish of what ever he was going through
I cant get the thought of him out of my head
I hope he is smiling up there
YOu are truly missed
Jeffrey Brandeis

Paul was our oldest son's best friend whom we loved and considered as our 4th son. He was kind, goodhearted, fun-loving, and a genuinely loving person. His smile always lit up a room and uplifted any and all who might have been having a rough day or were in a down mood. All five of our children enjoyed so many enjoyable times with Paul, and we did as well. We will miss him terribly, but will forever cherish our happy memories we have of him. Rest in peace, dear sweet Paul.

I only knew Paul for a short period. We met while attending Penn State Berks. Paul was always a great guy. Always in good spirit and always fun to be around. I was just to send my condolences to Pauls family and friends. Lets cherish the time we have with our loves one and try to be there for each other in times of need. Paul, rest in paradise my friend.

I knew Paul through my older brother David, and grew up with him basically being my fourth older brother. He always looked out for all of my siblings and me, and he always had his famous bright, beautiful smile on his face that could light up the darkest rooms.

The last time I got to be with him was after not having seen him for quite a few years, at Davids wedding. Luckily, I had the pleasure of sharing a dance with him during the reception. After dancing, he and I went outside to catch up. We talked about our lives, the mundane - the exciting, all while enjoying the relaxing summer evening. After we caught up, he went with one of my brothers to go talk by the water to do the same. It was such a beautiful night - perfect weather. He was always ready to be there with you, to talk and listen any time you needed.

Its bittersweet that this was the last time I saw him. But Im thankful that the last time I saw him, he was with my whole family - just where he is in my heart. He will always have a special place in my heart, as Im sure the rest of my family will as well. He was one of a kind, and will be deeply missed.

I love you, Paul. You were always an amazingly sweet, caring, and beautiful person.

Wherever a beautiful soul has been
there is a trail of beautiful memories. Paul we love you and you will be missed! Jim you are like family to us though words however gentle can not take your pain away . We hope our prayers comfort you today. We love you and are here for you during and after this difficult time.

I miss you more than words can say. I know you didnt want to go, especially this way. No more struggle, no more battle. I love you Paulie. You will Never be forgotten. Your message of Hope will carry on. I love you brother.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. Paul was a truly good person and the world gets a little less bright with his passing. My thoughts and prayers go to the Freedman family with sympathy.

Jim, Please know we are here for you! My deepest condolences to you and the entire family. Hold your memories with Paul close at heart and he will always be with you! You are in my thoughts and prayers for strength to get thru this difficult time. Know Paul is at peace and shining his light down on you.

Knew Paul from being a customer at the diner. Always made it a point to come to our table, say hello and shake hands. He always made you fell welcome. One of the nicest and most genuine people I've ever met. You will be missed by us. My sincere condolences to his family.

Rest Peacefully. May the angels be forever at your side, may the clouds be your comfort, may the sun shine in your memory.

Nancy, Jim, Diane and family, I was just about to text you about visiting your Mom last week (she will always be my idol), when I received this shocking news about your son and nephew. Although I did not know Paul, I know the void is just awful-there are no words for this kind of pain. Please know your entire family is in my prayers. Peace and love, Catherine (Cass) Spoerl
