We no longer live in Santa Rosa but remember fondly good times with Tom & Betty. Tom was always such a fine man and a fine gentleman. Not only have Betty and their family experienced a loss but also the community and Tom's large family of friends. He will be missed by all.

It was wonderful working for such an honest organization as Freeman Motors. Mr Freeman created a very wonderful place to work. I feel very fortunate to have worked under his sons Steve and Mark.
