Richard B. Kehl

You will be missed Dick. I enjoyed working for you as Divison chief of SQD at the then FTD. You and Judy made Air Force life a joy for Marsha and me. You kept things in balance at work and always sought excellence. It was an honor and pleasure to serve under you. Faithfully, Col. Jerry D. Adinolfi, Jr, USAF, Ret.

Dear Judy and family,
I am proud to have been a Boardman High classmate with such a distinguished person as Dick. Today I am using the Mill Creek Park Lanterman Falls coffee cup that you both gave me at one of our class reunions long ago. My sympathy to you all. Jerry Armbrecht

Am so sorry that we have lost a wonderful, kind gentleman and the Nation has lost a fine officer who served a long and remarkable career. We were the same rank but I was always in awe of his knowledge and admiration of the manner in which he led and cared for people. Dick and Judy, Sirima and I will always be thankful to have had you in our lives. RIP, fine warrior and sincere condolences to Judy and the family.

A truly kind, patient, wonderful man and loving husband, father, father-in-law and grandfather. We are thankful to have known him and so very grateful to have benefitted from having his daughter as a cherished lifelong friend.

Richard made this little Santa....both he and Judy are very talented people. Best wishes for the family.

Colonel Kehl. That does have a ring to it. We knew him simply as Richard, Cousin Judy's quiet and devoted husband. They dated in college when he was in the ROTC at Ohio University and Judy was singing the fifties hit "Hey there, you with the stars in your eyes..." He asked her to marry him and Judy followed Richard's star around the country and beyond and never looked back. He had a gently sense of irony that contrasted with her broader sense of humor. It kept the atmosphere lighthearted...

May the love of God surround you and your family during this difficult time,
May you come to know that the love of God is with you always,

May your memories of Richard B. Kehl, give you peace, comfort and strength

Rest now in the arms of our Lord your mission on earth is complete.
I thank you for your service to our Country and my Freedom. You will not be forgotten.
My thoughts
and prayers to the family of .

US Air Force Veteran, Richard...

We will miss your smile and humor. Now you are in "the wild blue yonder".
