Paisan,
I miss my hunting partner & best friend.
We think about you and your family all the time.

My deepest condolences to the Freitas family on Rich's passing.  I had the privilege of working with Rich for several years and the character, strength and grace he showed every day - no matter the circumstances - sets the bar for the rest of us.  Being around Rich made me a better person.

Letty my heart aches for you and the girls you lost someone very special in your life, i can't tell how very sorry we are thoughts and prayers our with you the girls and the rest of the family. He will be truly missed

My condolences to the Letty and all of the Freitas family. I had the privilege of working with Rich for several years.  Rich was an icon in the canning industry he helped many of us get our start, he will be sorely missed.

What a shock to see this.  Rich  and I went to college together, we drove the Unitrans double deck busses together.  Just four years ago we reconnected in Woodland and Rich helped my son get a summer job at Olam.  Will always remember your laugh and sense of humor.  RIP

I am so sorry Letty. My heart goes out to you and your family during this difficult loss. 
May his love be your light.

Barbara and I send our thoughts and prayers to you during this difficult time.  Rich helped me with a job when I needed one and was a good boss and friend. Best regards, Ramon and Barbara Bawanan

Words can't describe
The feelings inside
The passing of a much loved son;
A very loved brother;
An amazing man.

From the day you were born, 
I knew you were special 
And that you would become
An amazing man.

I didn't need to be involved
In your everyday life
To know that you loved 
Us conditionally  and we
Loved you the same. 
I know that you knew it, as
You were an amazing man.

I am so proud 
of all of your accomplishments.
I am so proud to have been
Your Mother.

Words can't describe the loss that we feel, 
The broken hearts, 
The unspoken love,
The unspoken words,
But knowing you're not suffering
And are with our Lord & Savior
Makes it possible to go on.
Until we meet again.

Love forever,
Your Mom

I am so deeply sadden by the loss of Richard. Our families were very close when we were growing up and I have so many wonderful childhood memories to hold on to. A life taken too soon, God must have bigger plans for him. Rest peacefully Richard. My heart goes out to all of you at this difficult time and I pray the days ahead will shine brighter  for all of you who loved him so much

Miss you So much been thinking about you these last few days wish I could of went there to see you

I had the privilege of working with Rich for over 20 years and have learned so much from him during that time. May God Bless the Freitas Family during this very difficult time.

Rich was always proactive, positive thinking and a joy to be around during our times together in the canning industry. He will be missed. Our deepest condolences to his family.

Everyday that I felt like calling in I would remember Rich and how he persevered each day and I got up and got busy.

My deepest sympathy on the passing of Rich.  Got to know him from the Yolo Fliers Club and on the course.   But having been involved in the tomato business during my career we had many great conversations and knew a lot of people in common.

He will be missed. 

Steven Beckley

Dearest Letty and family.
 Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. May your beloved rest in peace, and may you find some peace and comfort in the prayers that are being said by those who know and love you all.
Love you!

My condolences to the Freitas Family. I will miss our rounds of golf and his friendship.

To Letty Jenny Rachel BiBi and Don.. How my heart aches for you. I am so glad Richard had you guys at his side every step of the way from diagnosis to the end. The 5 of you were at his side constantly making sure he had everything he needed. I am so glad he had his immediate family at his side, I know it meant the world to him. He is no longer in pain but you are. I wish you healing as he would want you to smile and move forward. May you rest in Peace Richard Freitas and enjoy your Giants games from above.

Dear Freitas Family:  I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your brother Richard. I have fond memories of the get-togethers our families had many 
years ago.  I speak for my sister Kathy and brother Steven in sending condolences to all of you.

In friendship and sympathy,

Janet,
My heart goes out to you and your family during this difficult loss. I cannot even begin to imagine what you are going through and how difficult all this must be for you. Please know that I am always there for you. Whether to talk or cry or even just sit in silence with.

My thoughts and prayers to the Freitas family. I had the pleasure of working with Rich for five years and I am blessed to have the opportunity. May God watch over your family in this time of need.

Rich, the last email I sent you a couple months back you said we will talk soon...I miss you and was looking forward to that.  Our families had drifted apart years ago, but I always looked up to you and you were there for me when I needed you.  I wish I could have been there for you!  You will always stay in my heart and I know you are in a better place now, you can go golfing with Dad and Uncle Bill at the most heavenly course ever!  Punkie can catch you up on all the gossip in Heaven!  I know I will see you again and I keep that comfort in my heart!  I Love You Big Brother!!!

Rich....Loved you more than you could ever imagine.  As our big brother, you were our rock, and probably didn't even realize it.  We will forever miss you, but take comfort in knowing you're with our Lord.  

Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.  

We don't understand why you had to be taken from us so soon, but we will trust you Lord.

Love forever.... say "HI" to Dad, Punkie, Nana, Uncle Bill and the rest up there!
