It breaks my heart to hear of the passing of Mr. Freeman. He was such a great customer, friend and in many ways a father figure. I will cherish & miss the conversations we shared over the last 15+ yrs. Now you can rest in peace with no more worries or pain. I will miss you

Roger was a part of our extended family for the past five years. We met through church, connected and became friends. I was able to assist Roger in going to several medical appointments, and those times provided the opportunity for us to talk, and to get to know each other better. I grew to know of Roger's work with OPS, some of the things that influenced him growing up (teachers, coaches, friends), his athletic prowess, and most importantly, his gentle heart. Roger was a good man, a kind man, a humble man, and a humorous man. His passing leaves a gap in our lives, but his stories and memories of him will linger forever. Rest in peace my brother.

We cared for Roger during his last year. We instantly loved being around Roger when we met him. His sense of humor, kind, and caring nature brought joy to each one of us. We loved his stories, relaxed, welcoming nature and love for Jesus. -Hope Care Services (Kathy and Libby)

I worked with Roger for over 30 years with Omaha Public Schools Transportation. Roger was a very likeable man, being very knowledgeable with a nice sense of humor. Rest in Peace, Robert Strnad
