Not sure what to say?

Poppa, it's been almost four months since you spread your wings. I have struggled, my grief of your final flight - unmeasurable. I feel lost, missing your hugs, your quirky Dad-isms. I feel robbed of time with you. But with all this, it doesn't bring you back. I miss you beyond words. I hope to see you in my dreams, and I hope you are at peace. I love you Poppa. Forever Your princess

Richie upper left corner. I am in front of him with my hands on David Starr. Others Bonnie Dixon, Donna Dixon, Ruthie Starr, Roy Kimble, Cheri Rogers, Dixie Rogers and Candice Rogers.

Hey Dad, I know in my heart that you are at rest, and having a great time with your mom and Dad. Though your pain is no more, our heart ache is great. Dad you were the living definition of cowboy up. I am going to miss our talks of truck driving and what movie did the Duke say this quote. You are the definition what courage is. John Wayne said, "courage is being scared to death,but saddling up anyways." You can rest now dad till we meet again.

Don and I offer our condolences to Richard's family. We are praying for your family. I've not seen him for what seems to be 30 years. He will always be little "Richie" to me.

Daddy, my heart hurts so much, I cannot breathe. You are a superhero. You have strength in every sense of the word. You show me incredible courage and strength...making choices you were not ready or wanting to do. That, in itself, took tremendous courage. You are a hard worker, you are full of sarcasm and humor, which you certainly gave to me! I am my father's daughter! Poppa, you are my superhero. You have given me strength in my life as well. It took me many years to understand, really...

I'm sorry for your loss, I would stop by at every one of his yard sales, I enjoyed talking with him, Rest in piece!

Terry and I send our condolences to all the family. Ours thought are with you. Love Sandy.

Rest in Peace

Rich was a true friend always ready to help anybody. He had an exceptional dry sense of humor and will be truly missed, as we have the pleasure of knowing him and Jeanne for the past 20 years. May he rest in Peace
