Leaving a Legacy, Susan Freeman

 It is important to honor the life of special people in our lives on Newark-Granville Road. Susan Freeman is one of those people.

Her obituary is here:  https://www.mcpeekfuneralhome.com/obituary/Susan-Freeman  The service is today, Saturday at 1 pm, at First Presbyterian Church, Granville.

We enjoyed many engaging and important interactions with Susan thanks primarily being a part of the church family.  The relationship deepened when her daughter Laura entered our lives.  Laura was a key partner when it came to raising our children and my return to work.  So simply put Susan was Laura's mother and that made her so special.

My heart aches for Chip and Laura, for all the Freeman children and grandchildren. Those close to her I hold in prayer as well, friends and family. Susan was an amazing mother and wife, and community member. She always had a smile, always stopped to inquire and hear how things were going and would offer an encouraging comment that made your day better. Susan made such a difference in this world for so many in so many ways. She will be missed, she leaves a legacy, an amazing and important legacy.

Grief is interesting, and everyone processes and lives with it different ways at different times. This holiday season is so hard for so many, yet there is peace, love and hope all around the disbelief, pain, hurt and all those feelings. I'm grateful for my faith and all those that share and help us carry these feelings.
