Richard Lightkep

Elaine- I met Rick in 1971 when I went to work for Lithgow Funeral Home on 54th St. in Miami. He was a great guy to work with. He always treated me right and was always willing to help me. The first people I met in funeral service were Mr. Joshberger ( He hired me) and Rick. I left Lithgows and went to work for Philbrick & son in Miami Shores. But.... When I think back on my early days in funeral service I always think of Rick. God bless you and your family.

I am sorry to hear of Richard's Passing. I remember him and his family from when I was growing up in Meadowlawn. I went to first grade with Tom Lightkep, many years ago. Our thoughts and prayers will be with his wife and family at this difficult time.

I am saddened to hear of Rick's passing. He was very kind and comforting to me with the loss of my sister. I know he is with my sister now; praying and comforting her too.
Elaine and Family; Remember, Rick will always be with you through all the wonderful memories you all have shared together. Blessings and Love to You All.

Dear Elaine,
We have never forgotten you and have prayed for you and your husband ever since you along with John and Mary Skelton came to visit my parents, Ed and Jane Lieb in Crestview FL. May there be many memories to treasure.

Rick and family, so sorry for the loss of your father. May God bless and sustain you with his love.

I've been praying God would heal you if that was his plan and to hold you tight in his arms if that was not to be.You were the greastest Sunday School Teacher ever and I will never forget that beautiful smile.Know that you were loved and admired by all, especially my family. You were there in my time of need and our family will be there in your family's time of need.You'll never be forgotten and neither will your family. They can lean on us. We're a shoulder to cry on,a hugger when you need...

We have been praying and will continue to pray for your family. Rick was an inspiration to us as he stayed faithful to the Lord during his suffering. He was a testimony of God's Grace. May God's arms of love embrace you. Love in Christ, Jim and Marie
