I'm so glad we had gotten back in touch...but will always regret not getting together in Arkansas. I will miss you old man.

Richard, If you're reading this, I just happened upon your obit. I can't believe it. My heart is aching. You were one of the best friends I ever had. I just spent hours telling my wife about all the experiences you and I shared in New Orleans: Time with Brandy, you police dog; the story about the guy who thought your pet boa constrictor was stuffed until the snake stuck his tongue out and the guy went screaming out of the house; the times we spent together at LSU/NO, how you married Peggy;...

Richard was a good friend for over for over 25 years. He was a good guy with a great wit! We enjoyed each other's company until his move to Arkansas after his retirement.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.
