FREELOVE, Joseph – Passed away peacefully at the Emmanuel House on Friday, September 15, 2017 at the age of 97. He was predeceased by his wonderful wife Barry and is lovingly remembered by his daughter Joanne, son-in-law Tony, his cherished granddaughter Lisa (Greg) and adored grandson Brian (Emily). He will be sadly missed by his brother Harry Freelove, his sister-in-law Helen Edmonds, his wonderful nieces and nephews and his much loved great nieces and nephews.
