Richard Emory Vance

Donna I am so sorry to hear about this. Rick was a great friend and my agent for many years.

I recently read a quote that defined a legacy as "planting seeds in a garden you never get to see." I hope that Rick had an inkling of the many lives that he touched and enriched as a man of exemplary character, conviction and compassion- -including my own. I do believe that his life has and will continue to reap an extraordinarily bountiful harvest for generations to come. The Circle is indeed, Unbroken.

My sincerest and deepest sympathy to Rick's families and many friends. My memories are filled with Rick's kind, gentle, noble, respectful and happy demeanor. Thinking of him brings an immediate smile and deep admiration for always being one of the nicest people I've ever known. I was blessed to know him and call him "friend."

Rick was a kind and generous man who will be greatly missed. We here at Jasons' Barber Shop are shocked and saddened by the news. We just found out today and are still in disbelief that another good person has left us. Our deepest sympathies go out to his wife, and family. RIP Rick.

My condolences to family and friends. As a client who has only dealt with and taken care of very well by Rick for the past almost thirty years, I cannot imagine the loss to you.

I am so sorry for your loss. Rick was an amazing man. Always a smile on his face and kindness in his heart. Donna, Kara, Ben and the rest of the family are in my thoughts and prayers. He will be truly missed.

Praying for Rick's entire family to find peace and strength. I will miss Rick's kindness and smile and how he always made me feel welcomed. Rick was one of those rare humans who made those he came in contact with feel he was interested in their lives and their families. I especially ask Blessings for his dear mother Eva.
May all his family and friends recall happier times in the past years and take comfort that so many people remember Rick so fondly.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Rick was a great guy. He was our "insurance man" for many years. He was always kind, pleasant and honest. Very professional and really seemed to care about his clients. He will be missed

The world will not be the same without you Rick. We always enjoyed your frequent stops in the store. You were a generous and caring peron above and beyond what was needed. The caring and concern you showed to others was admirable. We will miss you and never forget you...
Your friends at Kent Floral...
Karen, Mark, Libby, Pat and Anne
