Dear Gordon, Mindy, Marc and family, As a close neighbor, I was blessed to move next door to Gordon and Arlene nearly 10 years ago. They are wonderful people and all of the family as well. Richard had a special charm about him, a warm smile, a great sence of humor, he was so kind and caring to all of his family. He will always be remembered and honored. I am terribly sorry for your loss and will miss seeing him with little Gibson by his side. Please know that I am here for your family in...

To all the Ainsworth Family, my deepest sympathy. Gordon Sr. was a pal of my Dad, and "young Gordon" probably remembers some of their time together. The Rittenhouses, Ainsworths and Parnigonis had wonderful times together, especially during their years singing in the Westerly Chorus. I spoke briefly to Gordon Sr. when he visited Arlene at WNH while I was visiting my parents there. My Dad is now gone, too, but after nearly 92 years. I can't imagine the crushing weight you all must feel...

Mindy- I just heard about Rich today, and words cannot express how sorry I am for you and your family. If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Mindy and Marc,

Our family was deeply saddened to learn about the sudden death of your loving husband and father. My Richard and I always enjoyed our occasional chats when we would see you and Richard around town.
I best remember Rich when we both chaperoned the Atlanta Stonington High School music trip. We had a blast and he always made all of us laugh and relax which we desperately needed while chaperoning high school students. May all the Ainsworth family find strength...

Trevor,

What I remember most about you dad is when he used to call you at Nana's when we were little and pretend to be Mickey Mouse. He'd ask if I was Minnie, or if Donald or Pluto were there, before asking for you. You obviously inherited his sense of humor.

I know he meant a lot to you, and I am truly sorry for your loss. He will be missed.

Love,
Your sister
