Richard M. Holman

It has been more than a year since your passing, and you are on all of our minds and hearts. You will never be forgotten brother.

I left a note in the guestbook here when I first received the terrible news of your passing, and I wanted to post now, more than a year later, to show you and your family that you are important to us, and you will be forever missed.

I spoke briefly with your brother Russell through linkedin, and I am hoping to reach out to him to help do...

Rich my friend. I am so sorry to hear you have passed. I just found out today. I know how much the Navy meant to you. Even though I only knew you a month or so, I had a blast with you with the time I spent with you.

Like I told you back in Portsmouth. I will always be here for you. And I mean that even if you are on Earth or not. I will always be here for you...... Never forget that.... I'm going to make you proud my friend. I'm going to accomplish so many dreams you had in memory...

Rich; your passing was a shock and truly saddened me. I will always remember the years we worked side by side. A wonderful man who inspired many.

My sincerest and deepest thoughts, prayers, sympathy, and condolences to everyone during this very difficult time. My heart always breaks for the friends and family when I read of someone so young passing away. Such a handsome young man taken away far too soon. Thank you kindly for your service, bravery, and sacrifices young man. Rest in peace.

We are so sorry for your loss. We do know that Richard is with Jesus but he will be missed tremendously here in this life.

Its been some time since we have all seen each other, but have nothing but such wonderful memories. Aunt Michelle had previously mentioned the Pie Eating contests at the Fitch Tavern. Christmas Eve sitting in the tap room eating dinner. Dont ever remember anything but pure joy from Ricky. Such a gentle soul. Hearing so many wonderful things written about Ricky shows how many lives he touched and helped. He will forever be a prime example of who...

I am so very sorry for your family's loss. Sending love and prayers, and I will keep your family and Rick in my thoughts. My deepest sympathy to you all.

Such sweet memories... remember at one of the family reunions, grandma gave them all blueberry pies? As an eating contest? Richard stuck his face in and never came up until he was done! Such a smile, very quiet too. You served our country- a true patriot. Thank you! You are loved & will be forever missed.
