My heart aches for each of you; his wife, his children, his grandchildren. I am so sorry that you are without him.

He was truly one of the best humans I have every known, he was funny, generious, and kind. You would think that not seeing someone for over thirty years, that you would forget these qualites, but I will never forget, and considered him a great friend.

Terri, Monica, Danny, Michelle and all the Gutierrez family: My deepest sympathy to all of you. Richard and I got to be special friends during the time we spent ministering to the children at St. Paul's Catholic Church sunday school. Richard was a special person to me and I know he shared his deep faith in God to his family. It is very difficult to see someone special taken away from us here on earth, but I know God has a special place with him in Heaven. May God Bless You and be with you during this time of sorrow. I will continue to pray for the family to feel God's strength now and always as you remember the happy times with him and his great attitude and smile.

Terri,Danny,Monika, and Michelle;

There are no words that will comfort you, but being people of faith you know that God knows your grief and is always ready to give you comfort. Richard was a man

who had a strong belief system, and he ate at the Lords table as a brother, and each of you are part of the legacy he leaves behind. My prayers and spiritual support remain available for all of you at any time. My condolences
