Happy Memories thinking back as we watched Ted & Rex sharing their passions together- Dad snapping shots of the bride & groom while Son kept them smiling & dancing all night long! And we can't forget how proud Lil' Theodore was to show off those 1st celebrity pic's Dad snapped of Lauren Hill, I beleive it was! Theo is one of our oldest & closest friends- no matter how much time or distance between us, the Freeman Family is always close to our hearts. At this time, may you feel the comfort of friends, the love of family, the presence of God.
