Catherine Jane "Janie" Freeman-Duryea Obituary (1934 - 2016)

Catherine "Janie" Freeman-Duryea went to be with the LORD on Monday, May 16, 2016, in Hospice care, Pinehurst, NC. Born Jan 4, 1934 in Banner Elk, NC, she was the daughter of the late Grace Hages-Freeman and Ted Freeman of Roan Mountain, TN. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, CSM Raymond Duryea and son Jerry Duryea. Those left to cherish her memory include her son, Douglas and wife Rhonda Duryea of Navarre, FL; her beloved companion of 28 years, Mr. Guy McDowell and their loved pets. Catherine was a treasured mother, best friend, and mother-in-law with a deep passion for her family and those she held dear. She had a miraculous way of listening and reassuring those who knew and loved her dearly. Her personal attention to detail for the little things in life, unnoticed by most, made her very special. Her love will be felt around us forever. Her voice will be forever treasured and heard in the wind. Family and friends will gather Monday, May 23, 2016, from 6 - 8pm at Adcock Funeral Home, Spring Lake, NC. Condolences may be made at adcockfuneralandcrematory.com
