I am so sorry for your loss. You don't know me but I grew up with Richard, as we called him. My mom and dad were good friends with Oscar and Odessa. I also worked around Oscar for a few years and was associated with him at Central Baptist. I was just thinking of Oscar the other day, wishing I could hear the quartet that he sang in again. Richard was a great Green Dragon player and a good friend when we were young. After we all grew up, we parted ways. But the memories are still alive in our hearts. I know it has to be hard for you but God Bless and prayers for your family.
