KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — It was Stanley Freeman Jr.'s 17th birthday on Friday. Even though family and friends gathered at his grave to remember the teen who died due to gun violence in February, they made sure there were still balloons.
"Even though little Stan is no longer with us, being 17 would have been a very important birthday for him and we just wanted to come out and show that we really miss him," said Clifford Bishop, his uncle.
