Richard James Klapproth

I have the fondest memories of my teen years and young-adult life having spent a great deal of time with the Klapproth's in California. The day they moved to Dallas was one of the saddest days of my life. However, the love and friendship remained through the years. I'll never forget when I teased Richard about his messy eating and having ketchup on his white tee shirt and calling him ketchup slob! And, watching Cowboys games. I was a little frightened the first time I did! All the hootin and...

May your fond memories sustain you during this difficult time.

My sympathy to each and every one of you that loved Richard as I do.
Such a joy to have known and been a part of his life. Always so considerate, wanting to do good for others. May God Bless and be with you.
Love
Elaine

Karron, our thoughts and prayers are with you. We've both lost our fathers so we know first hand how difficult this time is. Just know that God's grace is truly sufficient to see you through. Please know that you can call me anytime, any day. See you soon.

One of my most vivid memories of my Uncle was playing football with him at my parents’ house when I was 13 or 14. He threw the ball that slipped through my fingertips and then told me, "If you can touch the ball, you can catch the ball." And even though football was a small part of my life, the idea or lesson behind that statement motivated me to strive a little bit harder in all aspects of my life. Funny how one game of catch can affect your whole life. I will miss his sincere and welcoming...

Uncle Richard you will be missed greatly by this family. I very much enjoyed the trips to Lake Fork and Joe Pool. I can just imagine that you are landing the "Big Ones" by day and hitting "Flaming 7's" at night. Rest well Richard.

Our thoughts and prayers goes out to you and your family.
