C.E. Richardson Obituary
passed away sometime Tuesday night (8/21/2012) after a long and courageous battle with ALS. An extraordinary veterinarian, he devoted his life taking care of God's animals with great love, care and skill. Rich leaves behind many children, close friends and family that love him dearly. Dad was a man that lived life on his own terms and loved to share whatever he had with any in need. I do not have the words to express how much he will be missed and we will always love him. The loving care from Hospice of the Valley allowed Rich to live the final days of his life with dignity, and at home. Please send any donations on his behalf to Hospice of the Valley.
