Freeman, Aidan Michael Of Stoughton, passed away suddenly on March 7, 2021 at the age of 7 years after a courageous battle with Rett Syndrome.

Beloved son of Tracy E. (Kerr) Freeman and Michael F. Freeman. Cherished brother of Abigail and Alexander Freeman. Grandson of Anne E. (Dudley) Kerr of Randolph, Frederick A.

Aidan was an outstanding young man. He lived life with a heart of pure love and overcame numerous obstacles. He was a member of the Kennedy Day School, where he excelled. He worked harder at life than any little boy should have to and he did it with a smile on his face. He was loved unconditionally by his family and friends. He was a light in this world and even in passing it can never be dimmed.

Family and friends will honor and remember Aidan's life by gathering for a Funeral Mass in St. Margaret Church of St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish, 800 Columbia Rd., Dorchester, on Saturday morning, March 13, at 11 A.M. Burial will follow in Knollwood Memorial park in Canton.
