Don Russell Freiling

I'm sad to hear that Don has passed from this life. We played football at ACC & have visited via phone over the years. I remember his "cat eye" (the pupil in 1 eye wasn't round). He was a great guy & will be missed by so many.

Jeanette and all the family, we were so saddened to learn of your loss of Don. Your family members prove that Don was a wonderful guy and a man of God. Please accept our condolences. We will pray for all of you during this difficult time.

Jeanette and family, Ron and I and the girls are saddened to learn of Don´s passing last month. He holds a special place in our hearts now and always. Ron and Nancy Lehde, Heidi, Jenny, and Wendy.

George and I have very fond memories of Don from West Avenue C of C. We are sad to learn of his passing. Sandy Shipley

Mr Don as a special one of a kind guy! My parents loved hanging out with him & Jeanette and traveling together and laughing together. He always had a smile, and of course a joke and a kind word. He raised some amazing kids as well and I know he´ll be greatly missed. Love to you all! Reneé (Murff) and Steve Martin

Condolences on the passing of Coach Freiling. I played football for him at Jefferson. Sandy Guerard

Don was a warm, outgoing, kind man and was a great friend of my mom and dad! I remember him and his wife coming to Auburn with my parents when I was in school there and he was so impressive how he could remember people's names and where they were from and tidbits of info about people he just met! He tried to explain his memory peg system to me but I never could get it. He was such an encouragement to everyone around him. He will be missed!

He was my first cousin, friend, mentor, and spiritual leader! He was 7 1/2 years older and bought me my first baseball glove when I was 6! He and his brother Wayne were in the top 5 of men I've respected most in life (the others being their father Russell, Uncle John, and my father Jim Scraper). I will miss him the rest of my life!
