Not sure what to say?

My daughter was a student of Mr. Lee's at Wallace. Mr. Lee helped her through some very dark times in her life with his laughter and jokes. Mr. Lee, thank you for helping Maddie and being there for her. May you continue to watch over her.

I worked with Rich at Wallace. He was also pleasant to visit with and such a nice guy. He will be so missed. I am truly sorry he passed away. God gained an angel!

I enjoyed getting to know Rich when we taught in Ogallala. He was at the middle school and I was at the high school, but we would get to visit on occasion and I enjoyed watching football film with him on Saturday mornings! He was a great influence on the kids (now middle-aged adults!) at the middle school. Rich will be missed by many!

Great man. I enjoyed talking sports with him over the years. Rest in Peace.

We have such fond memories of Rich. He was easy to talk to and had such a kind heart. He will be sorely missed but deeply cherished. Wishing you comfort and peace in the words of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Ron & Rhonda VanSkiver

Richard was my go to guy, when I had a unruly cowboy at the rodeo. He was my big teddy bear. My thoughts and prayers are with Jo Jo and the boys. Rest in Peace Richard.✝

I am so sorry to hear this Richard was a great guy, always had a loving heart, always loved our chicken at KFC, you will be missed & remember for ever in our hearts!!!!! Brad & Linda Meredith!!!!!

I am so sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers to the family.

Richard was a great mentor to the youth for many years. He was definitely one of the “good guys”❤ He will be missed by many Hugs and prayers to his family
