Richard was one of my dearest friends. He came to visit me in Charleston, SC and had a wonderful time touring the city. He really enjoyed Patriot's Point where we took a lot of pictures. He was a very good friend to my late husband Dwight. He is now with Uncle Paul. I will miss him dearly. R.I.P my friend.

Richard was a wonderful friend and a great help to my mother, especially after my father died. He looked out for her and made her laugh!
