I remember meeting Byrd 18 years ago. He made a lasting impression. He had a heart bigger than him, and always had your back. I just saw him not long before this tragedy. He will be missed. Great person was taken but Heaven has gotten a mighty soldier.

I did not know Richard, but I would like for his family and friends to know how sorry I am for their loss. I cannot begin to imagine how difficult and hard this is. Please know someone out there cares and is thinking about them.
