Dearest Jenny, I didn´t know that your dad passed away until I just saw it come up on my phone. I am so sorry Jenny. I , of course, knew your dad through your mom.

Your mom always talked about him with such love. You´ve had so many devastating losses Jenny. Please accept my deepest sympathy. Thinking of you. Helene Reiff

Richard, was his wife Nancy's heart! They are both missed!

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always. To Richards' and Nancy's children special prayers.

Thank you for all of these incredibly kind comments. I appreciate it more than I can say.

I knew Mr. Berggren's late wife, Nancy from NorthPark University. Nancy spoke often of her husband, Richard with loving words. My condolences to the family and friends.
