Richard, one year later, it is just as hard to live without you. You would not want me to be so unhappy but finding joy has been the hardest emotion to experience again. I realize more every day that passes now that you were my love, my joy, and friend. You would not leave your heavenly home to come back to me, but I long for the day to see you and hold your hand again. I love you still and always will.

I will always love you, Richard.

I will always love you, Richard.

Prayers and deepest sympathy coming your way from the Benson and West family. Richard was a true gentleman and loving soul. I had the honor of his friendship within the egg industry family of UEP and will always remember his thoughtful words, guidance and concern in our conversations. Richard had a good heart and made those around him feel unique and special. He'll be terribly missed. From our family to yours, our love and prayers during this very sad time.

Dearest Anita, Lindsay, Kelly, Alex, and family,

I think of times where there was much laughter and many hugs in your home. We would wake up to Anita making fresh eggs that Richard had just brought us. Even when Lindsay, Matt, and I took the 4-wheelers where we weren't supposed to, he never raised his voice. The last time I got to see...

We have been thinking about your family and are saddened by this tragedy. Our deepest condolences.

To all:

There isn't a word I can share that will matter at this time. But I do want you to understand that you all are not alone in your sorrow. I came to know Richard through the egg business. That was probably 15 year ago. In that time I don't know that I've met a more gentle, humble, dedicated servant for mankind. I was just talking with one of my counterparts today, we were both lamenting how simply unbelievable it is to imagine we will no longer have the opportunity to greet...
