I am grateful for the memories that I have with Uncle Rich and Aunt Pat. I loved them both and knew that I was loved by them as well even though we didn't get to see each other often since I came to Arizona.

I love the memories of Christmas in Schaumburg and the Weber picnics. You will be missed Uncle Rich but I am glad knowing that you are reunited once again with Aunt Pat, Steve and Grandma Morris.

To Laura, Melissa, Bailey, Devin, Casey, Dawn, Aunt Shirley and my dad you have my deepest condolences. I pray that our Dear Lord will provide you peace and comfort in your time of loss. Take comfort in each other and your memories of all the wonderful times you had with Uncle Rich.

Love, Jean

To Remember Is Painful, To Forget Is Impossible. I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. You may be gone from my sight but never from my thoughts, memories and my heart. R.I.P Dad. I love you!
