I'm so sorry to hear about Mr. Riley. He and I worked at Alvin S. Glenn. I just found out about him. I have so many vivid memories of him slow strolling down the hall and always joking around. And he did not play with those inmates at all. Lol! I see his face in my mind so vividly. Rest in Peace, Mr. Riley. Rest in peace.

To the Riley family...may God Grant all of you comfort and strength during this time of bereavement. David will truly be missed...but to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. May God give you that peace that surpasses all understanding...keep your heart and mind through Christ Jesus. God bless the Riley family and keep you in His loving arms.
We love you
