My prayers are with the entire Watson Family,



Mr. Watson was always the one who would hand you a photo he took of you at the game. He only did to see a kid's face light up. Never asked for money or even a thanks. He took photos for the pure enjoyment of making people fell good and special.

As a father now, I take photos of my children and their teammates and give them out for the same reason he did.



A lot of people have the photos you took of them still somewhere in their house and they will think of you every time they look at them.



You won't be forgotten!

Mr. Watson was a great coach, role model and friend. Some of my fondest memories as a child growing up involve the Watson family.



As a coach, Mr. Watson instilled the drive and desire to win, to succeed. Many life lessons were learned, although not realized at the time, which have been put into practice and evident since.



Mr. Watson made the ultimate contribution. He made a difference in the life of a child.



Whether it was on the practice field or by the pool during a barbecue, Mr. Watson made the time special and memorable.



We deeply regret not being able to attend but our prayers and thoughts go out to Richard and the rest of the Watson family.



God Bless.
