Heartfelt sympathy and prayful condolence to all the familly of Richard Lang. He was the essence, and the epitome, of a true gentleman. Visiting with Richard and Rosemary, and praying with them, was always a joy and blessing. We shared a love of poetry and literature, art and classical music, and everything bright and beautiful.

Mark and John -
I'm very sorry to hear of the loss of your dad. What a beautiful tribute. Your dad and mom's friendship meant a lot to my dad during his time at PH. I'm thankful he had such good friends.

My heart goes out to all the Lang family. You all were so lucky to have had Codge for your Dad. I always enjoyed seeing him. He was so sweet, kind and always had a smile and a big laugh.

Jim,
Sorry for the loss of your father. May you have fond memories of him, and may he rest in peace.

My Deepest Sympathy to the Lang Family. May Mr. Lang Rest in Peace. Heaven gained an Angel!
