I grew up with Richard and the Barry Family in Oakwood. I was also a good friend of his wife Shirley and her family. They were all wonderful people.
God Bless Richard and his extended family. Richard was a very good man.
God's Speed Richard.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. Let the wonderful memories of Richard warm your heart and bring your peace during this difficult time. - 2 Thessalonians 3:16
