Anoshiravan "Anoosh" Baghernejad

The family of Anoosh Baghernejad sadly announces his passing on April 5th, 2024.

On April 5th, 2024, Anoosh passed away at the age of 61 doing what he loved—playing soccer at the Auburn Soccer Complex (Auburn, AL).

He was born on February 1st, 1963, in Tehran, Iran to his loving parents Buick and Aghdas Baghernejad. He was an esteemed entrepreneur, Real Estate Broker, and owner of Premier Realty. Though, he was much more than that. His faith in Jesus was a beacon, ever-present and guiding his every action. His deep devotion to God radiated from him, a constant testament to his faith. He wove a tapestry of connections, drawing threads from every encounter. His eyes sparkled with warmth, an invitation to a hug and a hello. Every stranger blossomed into a friendship waiting to happen, their hearts drawn in by his genuine welcome. 

According to Anoosh, his greatest accomplishment was his family and his dedicated actions were proof of this. In his family, he found his sanctuary, a haven built on the bedrock of their shared love. His unwavering faith in Jesus was the cornerstone, his wife, Kimberly, a constant source of strength by his side, and their precious children, Tayllor and Nathaniel, the joys that filled his heart. He took immense pride in being the best husband and father a man could be. His love was boundless, always prioritizing the needs of his family, for they were his everything.

With the agility of a soccer player and the discipline of a martial artist, he navigated the world. He pursued a dynamic life, successfully juggling his love for a wide variety of interests. Real estate invigorated him, while his deep love for reading fueled his ever-expanding knowledge. Anoosh, also, was a passionate musician who poured his love for music into singing, guitar playing, and songwriting. He thrived on challenges, constantly setting new goals to conquer.

Anoosh has been preceded in death by his mother Aghdas Motlei Baghernejad, his father Buick Baghernejad, his sister Aki Taeb and his father-in-law Robert Freeman Sr., his mother-in-law Rita Freeman, his brother-in-law Robert Freeman Jr., and his sister-in-law Jennifer Freeman. He is survived by his wife Kymberly Freeman, his daughter Tayllor Freeman, his son Nathaniel Freeman, his brothers Akbar Baghernejad, Ardy Sheer, his sister Azam Fatolahi, his cousin Sohrab Badiei, his brother-in-law Rick Freeman, his sisters-in-law Kelly Bost and Kathie Eidson as well as several other cousins, nieces, nephews, friends, and the Auburn Soccer Community.
