My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. May God hold you strong and fill your heart with many fond memories. God Bless

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Hold tight to all your memories with your father, son and brother.

We always enjoyed camping as a large group, with Richard and Baby Samantha (at the time). Richard was a very loving, thoughtful person to those having difficulties in their own life, he always reached out to help if he could or just provide moral support. We nicknamed him "4 star" during our softball playing years. He signed up to play and put 4 stars by his name...saying that he was a "good player" thus he got stuck with that nickname. If someone asked "Richard who?" the reply "4 star"...

A beautiful memory is like a rose whose delicate beauty endearingly grows more beautiful with time and remembering. Please accept with deepest sympathy,the heartfelt thought that there is hope in each new tomorrow. God Bless
