Richard entered my life Over 16 years ago and from day one he had my heart and I had his. The laughter, the tears, the stories, the heartache, the Love we shared will forever be ours. We had So much fun everywhere we went. Richard ~ thank you for allowing me into your life! I'll miss EVERY piece of every moment with you. You truly were in a class all your own.

Richard, I'll miss our spontaneous trips to Gasser, the BBQs, and the wine. You taught me how to properly swing a golf club. Thank you for the memories.
