1975 to pursue a career in baseball. In the June draft

with the Padres and was assigned to the Padres 40 man roster
in both 1978 and 1979. Later that year he was traded to the
Baltimore Orioles organization where he played an additional
5 years with two of those years at the Triple A level. In

I've been with J.R. Freeman since 1996 and this is my second
time around, I worked here previously from 1992 to 1993, thought
the grass was greener elsewhere but I was wrong and here I am back
with a wonderful company and couldn't imagine working anywhere else.
My position with the company is Office Manager, but I also handle
the Accounts Payables and various other tasks within the company.
I'm married to my husband Rob for 12 years, we have two wonderful
and athletic kids, our daughter Bailey is 11 avid swimmer and loves
the game of basketball and our son Lane is 9, also avid swimmer.
When I'm not at work I enjoy going camping with my family to the
sand dunes to ride our quads or camping at the beach. My children
are competitive swimmers so there are a lot of swim practices, and
a couple of times of the month we have swim meets to attend. |

I've been with our company since May of 1998. I moved to San
Bernardino that year from Iowa along with my wife Shawn, who accepted
a teaching position with the Rialto school district. I
think I bring a good deal of experience to J.R. Freeman after having
worked for Frohwein Office Supply in Iowa City, Iowa from 1985-1998. Upon
arriving in my new home state of California, I tried my hand in another
line of work, but I quickly realized that my true love was with the
office supply industry. The big office supply chain stores
were eager for someone with my experience, but I wanted to work for
a family run business like I did in Iowa. And that is when
fate brought me to J.R. Freeman Company. I haven't looked
back since. When I'm not working, I enjoy photography, bicycling,
and spending time with my wife. Together, we enjoy exploring California
and traveling to points unknown. |

I started working in the office supply industry as a delivery boy after school
for Wattenbarger's Office Supply in Redlands back in 1970. Twenty-five years
later my wife and I purchased the company. In an effort to spend more time
with my family, I decided to merge my company with J.R. Freeman in July of 2000. It
turned out to be a very good decision. I'm also an active member
of the Redlands Optimist Club and Highland Hills Church. In my spare time
I enjoy working in the yard with my wife Barbara or attending my son Eric's baseball
or basketball games. |

Jeff started with J.R. Freeman Co., Inc. in 1986 as soon as he was
old enough to drive to work after attending Redlands High School.
Besides his janitorial duties at a young age of 16 he also did the
deliveries of the daily office supply orders where he became popular
with many local customers. While working at J. R. Freeman
Co., he attended California State University San Bernardino where
he received his Bachelor’s of Administration in Communications,
focused in Public Relations and Professional Writing. After graduating
California State University San Bernardino, he worked part-time
for the Riverside Press Enterprise as a writer in the Special Sections
Dept. A year later, Jeff’s Father (Jack Freeman) convinced
Jeff to attend Western State School of Law. After one year, Jeff
felt a conflict of interest with the position and goals of Western
State so he sought a career in Graphic Design for five years with
a company in Fontana, Calif. In 2002 Jack Freeman and Tim Derryberry
approached Jeff and offered him a sales position with J.R.Freeman
Co., Inc. where he is currently employed as a Business Products
Specialist. Jeff is currently married to his wife Chrissy, with
whom he resides in their home in Redlands. They have two Shih tzu
dogs and two silly cats. Jeff and Chrissy created a web site dedicated
to their family and friends to keep in touch and to see what they
have been up to. Please visit www.jeffandchrissy.com. |
