Of Passion for living…

Dana’s greatest passion was her children, Jaxon, and Layla. Some of her most enjoyable times were hanging out with her family, friends, and co-workers. Dana had an angelic voice and loved to sing. She also enjoyed being a cheer-mom, shopping, traveling and entertaining family and friends.

At an early age Dana accepted Christ and after relocating to Loganville, Georgia she joined Pleasant Hill Baptist Church in Lawrenceville, Georgia.

Genuinely loved…

Dana was united in marriage to James Aric Freeman on February 24, 2005, and to this union Jaxon and Layla were born. Her first love was for God and family. Her zeal for people and desire to help others went beyond her home.
