Ann and Richie were dear friend of my mom, Jim and Erma. I fished many days with him and only knew him to be a kind and caring man. My dad caught a hook in Richie's fishing cap and damn near ripped his scalp off trying to finish the cast. My condolences to the family

Our condolences to all who knew and loved Richie. We came to know him and Ann through Mom Olga Starnell who went way back with them to Household Finance days. What a great couple they were! So sorry to hear of Richie's passing, but nice that he and Ann are together again. With Our Deepest Sympathy, Pete and Ronda Starnell
