Hi Richy, I haven't written for a while, that doesn't mean that I don't think of you because I do every minute of every day. The holidays are upon us again and your birthday, I hate the holidays, I hate any date that used to mean anything. I miss you with all my heart.
I will love you forever.
Love always, Reba

We have a lot of people up there with you so could ya say hi to Donald, Joan and Papa for us? Just to name a few. I know you hear the boys prayers @ nite and I know you know they miss there uncle they still say there is where uncle richy used to stand and fish by the tiki bar. I know you are in a better place where the warm sun is always at your back with that rod in hand.

Hey Rich, made it through thanksgiving, christmas and now need to get by your birthday. My heart is never going to be the same, I can't seem to get things straight in my mind. I miss you so much. I know it was hard for the kids too they are missing you so much it just doesn't seem to end our sadness.

Hi Rich, the holidays are upon us, how sad another time for us to be missing you so much. I just want to get through the next month. You are always on my mind, I can't seem to get through a day without crying. I still want this bad dream to end.
Be with us through the holidays, we all miss you terribly.
Love you forever,

Hi Rich, I can't believe it's been a year. The hurt and missing doesn't get any easier. The anger has subsided just a bit. We did the walk yesterday. It was pouring rain but the crowd was just as big. Everyone came back to house and we talked, cried and laughed all day long. Thank god for your family. Well, I can't tell you how much I miss you it is just so overwhelming.
I love you with all my heart and miss you.
Love, Reba

Dear Richy,
I can't believe it has been a year you are gone from this Earth. Although none of us can make sense of it, and you are missed so much...deep down I know you are in a great place among great company. The pain and disbelief is still as strong as ever. I pray for Reba, Melissa and Richard as they are hurting so badly. Give them a big hug from above and let them know you are okay and looking out after them. Please keep an eye out for my father too...as even in heaven, he cannot be trusted to take care of himself! LOL The gut wrenching pain and void doesn't seem to get any less...We miss you guys so much and our lives will never be the same without you here...we are trying our best to carry on as that is what you would want for us...We do all we can to remember and honor you...and am so grateful I was blessed to know you and spend some great times and have some great laughs with you. Please ease your mother's and brother's and sister's pain somehow and let them know how proud you are of them for carrying on so nobilly even though their hearts are breaking every day. You have touched so many lives and you left an incredible mark on this world and we are all better people because you have been in our lives. Love and miss you!

Good morning Richy, well, it's september 3 just about 11 months, hard to believe. the pain is so strong i can't seem to let my heart rest. i miss you more each day. I know when I look up and see that bright star it's you, i know you hear me when i talk to you. the emptiness never seems to let up. I know you are at peace and out of pain and that helps a little but i still want you to just walk through that door like it was just a dream.
I love you and miss you with all of my being.
Love Always, Reba

Hi Dad, Thinking of you alot lately. It just doesn't seem to get any easier. I have an empty feeling all the time. I just know it will never go away. Mom and I are going to the cottage when she gets home from work. It will be fun just the two of us and the dogs. You would really like the cottage, wish u were here to enjoy it with us. I have to say I would rather be sitting on the boat with u. I used to love doing that, we had so many good talks when we were hanging at the boat. I know you r always with us and that gives me great comfort. So much has happened that you were not here for. I have to stop myself from trying to call you and tell you everything. I can't believe you have been gone for 10 months. Still, the battle we went through is still so painfully vivid in my mind. I just wish it never happened. It will never seem fair. You were too good of a person to go through that misery. You will be on my mind and in my heart forever. I love you DAD , Till we meet again Melissa

Hi Rich, haven't written for a while, doesn't mean you are not always on my mind. Days don't seem to get any easier, I feel so empty and lost all the time. I can't seem to find a comfort place where I don't always think of you and have a little cry for myself. Hope the fishing is good, give everyone and hug and kiss. Give yourself a big one from me and the kids.
I love you with all my heart.

HI DAD I HAVEN'T WRITTEN IN A WHILE. I MISS U SO MUCH. THE PAIN NEVER SEEMS TO GET EASIER. ITS NOT FAIR, WE SHOULD BE SITTING ON THE BOAT RIGHT NOW. THIS WAS YOUR FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR. NOBODY WILL BE USING THE BOAT ANYMORE, IT IS TOO HARD TO ENJOY IT WITHOUT YOU. I DON'T KNOW HOW I HAVE MANAGED TO GET BY WITHOUT YOU THIS LONG. I THINK YOU MUST BE HELPING ME. I HAVE MY INTERVIEW AT SCHOOL NEXT WEEK FOR THE SURGICAL TECH PROGRAM. HOPEFULLY I DO GOOD. I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART AND NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I DON'T THINK OF YOU . I SHOULD SAY NOT A MINUTE GOES BY. LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME WITHOUT YOU. I WISH I COULD SEE YOU ONE MORE TIME, LOVE MELISSA

Richard, you made us proud at Northeast. I always use The Buckley Brothers Plumbing as examples of success stories when telling people about our students.
You, Paul, and Cris were the type of students that as teachers say," make teaching worth while". I will continue to brag about your success and remember you as a a respectfull student and good friend.
I am so sorry, for you and your family.

Good morning Richy, well it's another month. Not seeing the end to any of this. I talk to people less and less, no desire to see or talk to anyone. I seem to stay home a lot more. I keep hoping I see you walk through the door and wake me up. I miss you so much I don't know what to say or do anymore. Kids are doing good. they are working in marshfield painting and stuff. thank god for them, i don't know where i would be if it weren't for them.
Well, just wanted to say I Love You and Miss You.

Hi Richy, happy Valentines Day. It's hard to celebrate with a broken heart. I miss you terribly. You are always on my mind and in my heart, it's still too hard to believe you are not here. I am so empty without you. I will try to stay strong for the kids.
The new year doesn't seem to be much better. Richard got laid off, not a good thing for him to be idle.
Keep us in your prayers.
With love forever, Reba

Love forever and always,

With Richie passing a little of us all goes with him but all of him remains in our hearts and in our memories. He was considered quiet by most but he liked to joke and tease. I kept expecting him to grin and give that little side wink that said ' watch this, I'm gonna get them'! I'm glad for all my memories.

To The Beautiful Buckley Family,
I am so heartbroken for your loss and the pain your are enduring with Richy's passing. Richy had a quiet kindness, generosity and humor that was such a gift to this world and uniquely his. He was loved by so many!...I have so many wonderful stories and memories our families have shared over the years! Richy is without pain and suffering and surely is captain of the fishing boat in heaven...He is having a laugh and a cigar with his father, uncles, my father and is grinning that wonderful grin.. He is probably saying..."I'll be RIGHT BACK....." ;-).....God bless you all and may you find the love, strength and support you need from all the hundreds of people who love you and Richy to help you through this very sad time. Big Hug to you all. My love, support and prayers are with you always. Love, Jackie

We will miss him so much and we will always be there for you too - because if there's anything we have learned over the years, it's that FAMILY means EVERYTHING.
Stay strong for each other, I know that's what he needs to rest in peace.
