Richard F. Riley

Dad: Your great sense of humor, which you obviously passed along to me, has been a savior in my life. Your fine skills and talent at the pool table, on the other hand, were definitely not something you gave up so easily. The one thing I know most of all is that you loved women, always appreciated the fine beauty that they possessed, and never put them down. I am quite confident that this trait has carried on in your son. You will forever be my father, a great Dad, a wonderful sports fan, and...

Sorry for your loss. I never knew Richard Riley, but my great great grand father was Everett Austin Riley and Lola Richards Riley was my gg grandmother. Martha Riley was my great grandmother, she was Everett and Lola's daughter, so somehow I believe we are related.

This is to the Best Dad a girl could ever have. From your youngest (Loretta Gail). You fought a very hard battle Dad with Parkison's and now you are at peace. And to my Mother, (Louise) your Loving wife of 60 years: you Mom took the best care of Dad for 20 years with his disease.In his final hour you held his hand and told Dad it was ok to go, he knew and he is now in heaven. God Bless you Mom for being the best thing that ever happened to my Dad. I Love you both forever.
