Otis Wayne Freeman

Otis Wayne Freeman passed away July 29, 2013.
Blessed. Otis Wayne was blessed. As a man he stood firm in his beliefs. Mature in his faith he was steadfast, not tossed or blown by the wind. Honesty was on his lips; integrity filled his actions. He was loyal to his God, family and friends. God's creation was treasured by Wayne from the bayou to the forest; the love and respect for nature ran deep. The fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and wildlife that roam our woods were created by his Lord and respected and appreciated by Wayne. He spoke up when necessary; lived at peace whenever possible. He was a servant, helping others in need. This was evidenced by involvement with Feed My Sheep by providing food for those who are less fortunate. Wayne was not a man of many words but his words were true and accompanied godly action.
He is survived by his loving and dedicated wife, Judy, of 34 years, his three children Christopher Freeman, Laura Perry (Heath), and Courtney Hatchett (Neal) and Ottie loved his 6 beautiful grandchildren Laurie, Slade, Anna Grace, Dean, Caleb and Hudson. We remain yet not without hope; he is alive in Christ.
