H. Bradford Riga

I remember Mr. Riga as a father figure, after all he was my best friend's Dad. I can still hear Debbie saying "Daaaad" Robin doesn't want to know all about that adventure! Sometimes, I did, it was fun to watch him tell a story about his latest escapade. Mr. Riga knew how to tell a story, his face would light up and his eyes became mischievous, of course that was because he usually added something outrageous to the story! He did that to be sure you were paying attention. I sometimes worried...

I grew up on Brookside Drive and have fond memories of the Riga Family. My heartfelt condolences are with you all right now. "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30
May you find comfort in all of the memories you hold dear to your heart. Stacey (Gallagher) Norton
