	Mildred Freeman was a source of inspiration to everyone who knew 
her and a joy to all her life touched -and that was an impressive figure, 
for Mildred Freeman, wife of Arthur S., a resident of Belle Chasse for 45 
years, gave of herself to hundreds. She was 72.
	Dates, names of the various organizations with whom she was 
affiliated, 
and an active worker, are unimportant now to Mrs. Freeman who died of a 
massive heart attack, April 23-but her contributions were so abundant and 
significant that they can never be forgotten, especially since she 
influenced the lives of hundreds of kindergarden children as their beloved 
teacher, in Belle Chasse high School, where she employed great imagination 
with love to interest and educate the children in life's deeper values. 
	Mrs. Feeeman worked constantly and was constant in her work, in so 
many areas. Though a founding member of the Belle Chasse Community Methodist
Church, Mrs. Freeman gave of her talents as a vocalist, pianist and 
organistto many other churches who asked of her services, including the 
chapel on the Naval Air Station base.  
	For a long time Mrs. Freeman would bring a little portable organ with 
her to add music for occasions and in places where there were no piano or 
organe Her work with the Bayhi Ravey Post of the American Legion in Belle 
Chasse brought color and interest to the many programs in which she 
participated.
	Names are not available of all of the organizations who derived the 
special benefits from association with and through the efforts of this 
lovely lady. Suffice to say they included civic, historical, patriotic, 
and social organizations, plus her friends apart of, and apart from these 
groups - which are many indeed.
	Mrs. Freeman is survived by her husband, a daughter Majorie Freeman 
of Silverdale, Washington, a son, Kenney Glenn Freeman, Long Valley, N.J. 
and six grandchildren.
