To Donna and family:
I was saddened to find out that my closest childhood companion had passed away. He was truly a compassionate and dedicated man. Oh, and those pumpkins! I remember bringing my kids to see those gigantic orange delights. Great memories.

Richard, I will miss you dearly. I will miss your phone calls asking me what SIC code to put on an account. Will miss those lovely pumpkins. You were such a gentle, nice, caring person. I will always remember you. God Bless!

Dear Donna & Family,
I also had the pleasure to know & work with such an amazing person as Richard. I worked in the Cashier Department & he was always so helpful & brought a smile to my face either on the phone or in person. He was a humorous individual & very supportive of my 3 sons in their school fund raisers. I will miss him deeply but will keep his memory forever in my heart. Love & Prayers,

Donna and Family,
I worked with Richard for over 20 years. He always had pumpkin stories, Bronco banter and funny jokes to tell. Since my kids were toddlers, they loved to see what the Pumpkin Man came up with every year at Halloween. He was always willing to share information and pumpkin seeds to start everyone's gardens each year. He was a kind soul and gentleman. Colorado Springs has lost a great friend and co-worker. Heartfelt thoughts to Ms Donna, his Forever Love. RIP Great Pumpkin Man!

Donna and kids,
We are so sorry to hear about Rich. He was so kind and an all around nice guy. Halloween will just not be the same. I pray for peace for you all.
