Dear Dot and Judy,
I was so sorry to read about Rich's passing.He had a wonderful personality. We shared the same Sunday school classes at St.Peter's and had a couple of classes together at Johnston High School. He would always make funny comments and make everyone laugh. My prayers are with you and your families.

Dear Liza, Kristin and Ashley,
We just heard about Rich's passing and are so saddened by the news. Katie, Dan and I shared memories of times with your family during the St. Francis years, especially the bbq in your back yard before our kids went off on that adventure to Montreal. All of you are in our thoughts and prayers. Love, the Thompsons

Dear Liza & Girls

A Psalm of David

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures;
he leads me beside still waters; he restores my soul.He leads me in the right paths for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil; for you
are with me; your rod and your staff- they comfort me.You prepare a table
before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all of my days
of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD my whole life long.


Our thoughts and prayers are with you during your loss.

God Bless,

John, Chris, & Johnny

We are saddened to read of Richard's passing and extend our sympathy to his family. We met him 40 years ago and have many fond memories of time shared with him in RI and CA. Richard was a wonderful and special friend to everyone who was lucky enough to have known him. Though we lost touch over the years, he will always have a very special place in our hearts. RIP, dear friend.
