I was a student and employee at the Radison Airport Hotel Warwick , RI and worked with Richard's late daughter Pamela Gingrich. YOu see I was an international student from India and Pamela and Ty Gingrich really treted me as their own and they were so kind to me. I will never forget the late Pamela and also her dad Richard.
May your soul be reunited with your daughter Pamela in heaven.
