Freese Family Foundation

As many know, one of our local sports stars at East Hampton High School in his day Kenneth Freese, passed away on November 30th locally, at the early age of 56. He was succesful in athletics and remembered as a quaterback on the football team, tennis player and dedicated track star. He is survived by his parents that we all remember so well, Ward and Judith Freese. He is also survived by a brother Bill from Georgia and a sister Susan from Florida. To add to this sad time for the family we must remember Ken's brother Scott who passed away in February of heart desease at the age of 57. 

Unfortunately, life shows us time and again that tomorrow is never promised. However, this family has been torn apart losing one son/sibling after another. There has just been no time to heal or grieve. 

The family plans to come to East Hampton in May to remember   Ken's life and bless East Hampton with a way to remember our friend, our neighbor, one of our very own. Until their relocation to Florida, the Freese home in the village was a gathering place for many a youngster. Mr. and Mrs. Freese were well known and always opened their hearts to others. Its time for the community of East Hampton to open our hearts and raise funds for their ability to travel to East Hampton for the service and take care of untimely expenses that are just a small part of the tremendous loss this family has suffered. Lets show Kenny and his family that he made a difference in our lives in East Hampton and in other lives he touched. His neice Malorie summed it up best in a tribute to her uncle that takes your breathe away....a truely special man he was. Perahps she will share at the service.
While we are celebrating the season, lets remember those that are not as peaceful, those that are downright heartbroken. lets show them love. For you Kenny....GO BONAC!!!!
