A Celebration of Life service for Christy Barrett Freeman, age 47 of Toccoa, will be held at 10:00 AM, Saturday, December 11, 2021 at The Torch with Pastor Mike Franklin, officiating.

Christy passed away on Sunday, December 5th at her residence surrounded by her loving family.

Born in Duluth, Georgia on June 9, 1974, Christy was the daughter of the late Bobby Barrett and Mary Knight of Toccoa.  Christy was a true inspiration to anyone that she crossed paths with.  As a young girl she had a sensitive soul and a touch of spunk to her.  She married her teenage sweetheart and adored the ground he walked on.  She and Bryan soon had two boys that became their world.  Christy loved being silly and making the boys laugh.  She enjoyed taking family adventures together, with their latest being a trip to Puerto Rico.  She was so excited to get on an airplane and eat real BBQ in Texas.  It was the little things that brought her joy!  Christy loved her relationships and connections with her family and friends; they meant so much to her and she would often talk about them.  She loved spending afternoons sitting on the swing out by their lake property, listening to the birds and enjoying the scenery and sunshine.  When Christy got the news of her cancer diagnosis in 2013, she became the most amazing person ever known.  Her faith in God took any worries out of her mind.  She was simply living God’s plan and has now fulfilled His plan with the upmost respect.  Most of all, Christy loved everyone!  She cared deeply about people and found the good in everyone and every situation.  

In addition to her father, Christy is preceded in death by father in law Dean Freeman and grandmother Jeweldean Craig.

Survivors include her husband Bryan Freeman and sons Bryson and Brayden Freeman of Toccoa, parents Butch and Mary Knight, mother in law Irene Freeman all of Toccoa, siblings Dana Montgomery and Richy Stamey of Panama City, Florida, Amy and Jon White of Dawsonville, Crystal and Eddie Tanner of Auburn, Tony and Jessalyn Barrett of Richmond Hill, sisters in law Deana Hardigree of Toccoa, Dawna and Wayne Teague of Toccoa, brothers in law Darrell and Marthe Freeman of Toccoa, Darren and Cindi Freeman of Clayton and Nathan and Karen Freeman of Toccoa.  Christy also leaves behind many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles, extended family and many friends.  Christy touched so many lives and will forever be missed.
