On page one is an entry submitted by James Haddad. James passed away on August 15, 2004. He was someone that everyone should know, and that can be attributed to much that he learned from his Uncle Richard. We miss both of them now and will miss them throughout the remaining years we have left on this planet. God Bless and Keep Them both.
Jeanne & Bill Haddad

To my favorite Sagittarian (true to our form - love of life, spirted individuals) I will truly miss you and think of you often. Thank you for you for the birthdays shared.

In an earlier posting I mentioned that Richard was more of a father to me than my real father. When I was five years old I started school at the west side Columbus grade school. Richard, was a sixth grader there, and escorted me to school. He continued this throughout the three years we went to school together.

We didn't have the pleasure of meeting Richard, but having known Bill & Jeanne Haddad has been such a joy and we imagine Richard was just an extension of the same kind of love and true meaning of friendship that Bill and Jeanne show. Our love and prayers go out to you and to all of Richards family and friends who are feeling this great loss.

I Loved Richard and my buddies and I always looked up to Richard as a fine role model. He was the first in our circle of friends to go to college. He made a success of his life and was always happy to assist others. It was a privilege to know him.

I am so sorry about Uncle Richard. He left us with lots of memories. I will truly miss him, his warm embraces, and echoes of the good times we shared together.God love and keep Uncle Richard.

We shall miss the weekly breadfast meetings with our beloved brother. Over the years we spent many happy times talking family affairs, golfing, bowling, playing cards: you name it we did it. God love and keep our Brother Richard.
