Foster Freeman Batchelor

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brother, Phillip Batchelor. Freeman grew up in the Covington community and played varsity football and baseball for the Newton County Rams.

After moving back from California he became an accountant/bookkeeper in the Atlanta area. Freeman was an avid sports fan loving the game of golf, the Atlanta Braves, and the Georgia Bulldogs. His memory will be cherished by his sister, Linda “Lynn” (Ronald) Barnes of Dacula, Ga; nephew Eric (Dana) Barnes of Dacula, Ga; niece, Lyndsay (John) Luca of Chapel Hill, NC; great nephews Michael (Andrea) Barnes of Dacula, Ga, and Evan (Allie) Barnes of Maysville, Ga; great niece, Natalie of Chapel Hill, NC; and two great-great nieces.
