Days earlier, when reporters were in wait outside the Freeman home, both Ann and William, in a note read to reporters by family friend Grant Stinchfield, described their daughters as “the embodiment of love, accomplishment, and passion for life.” The statement noted that “John and Carolyn were true soul mates, and we hope to honor them in death in the simple manner in which they chose to live their lives. We take solace in the thought that together they will comfort Lauren for eternity.”
