I read over these comments - again - and am - again - inspired by Coach Bell.

Coach Bell You never rested in your time here on earth. And in doing so, you brought out the best in yourself and everyone around you. You gave us all what we needed and we will keep sharing what you taught us and what we learned from you. We all got this... we all will continue to inspire the world around us. Open up your chest and let your heart out! For you now Richard... It´s your time to rest, rest in eternal peace. Love you Coach

Coach Bell was my recruiter in 1995-1996 when he was at Air Force. Hard to believe that was 30+ years ago. His "Good, Better, Best" mantra will never leave my memory. He was calm in the storm, he was confident, he was a man filled with faith, covered in grace, and in the pursuit of saving souls. I was blessed to have Coach Bell in my life and I pray earnestly to see him again in paradise.

God Rest your soul Coach Bell. You touched many lives and mine as well. Barry Morgan, father of Beau and Blane Morgan

Coach Bell was great friends with my father, Troy Green. They played together at Little Rock Central high school. I was privileged to meet him after one of their class reunions. He invited my father and I out to Colorado Springs to see them play Notre Dame in 2006. Had a great time and more importantly he became one of my good friends. When my father passed away in 2015 he and his wife Marilyn showed up at the funeral. It was a joy to see them both. He really helped me through the tough...

Best coach I ever played for and one of the best men I ever knew. Thank you, Coach Bell.

Coach Bell was always a pleasure to work with, always a pleasure to chat with. Simply put He was a good man and a good guy. He was someone I always looked forward to our next conversation.
