Our deepest condolences to the family. We pray that God continues to strengthen and comfort the family during this difficult time.

Paved the way for other athletes who live off of the mainland.

My condolences.

Heartfelt sympathies to the Freitas family, so very sorry for your, praying for you all.

I focused on line play, when I was growing up (and I still do, to this day). Rockne was one of my favorites. A large presence, and an excellent OT for the Lions. One of the best football names, too! A standout on the gridiron, and in life. Rest in peace, Rockne.

So sorry to the family. I know your hearts are heavy. I also know the Creator of all things can comfort you at this difficult time. May he bring comfort and a calmness to the family.

Prayers for the Freitas family, so very sorry for your loss. May God be with all of you to give you strength and comfort to help you through this very difficult time.

Sincerely sorry for your loss. Peace and comfort from God help you in your time of grief.
