We will always remember Mrs. Richter for her sweet smile and the hug she always gave. She had 94 wonderful years of life and now she has returned home for her eternal reward. She will be missed but the memories of her will always be with us. God Bless the entire family and friends that will miss her so.

To the Richter Family,

We will always remember Ms. Richter because of her smile, and free acceptance of us as simply Gary and Shirley's friends.....she had such a sweet personality and smile and was always willing to hug and chat.....what a legacy this woman has left her family.....what an example to her children and grandchildren.......God did reward her with a long life.....as scripture tells us he will ....in Psalm 91.....verses 14-16.......We will claim the promise of verses 15 and 16 for her!!!!!!!

Love you guys and know that while you are grieving, you will also rely on all those precious memories to keep you going!...Mary and Dale Denais

Dear Gary, Shirley & Family:

Just got back in town and discovered Mrs. Richter had died. You were so lucky to have your loved one for such a long time. I know saying; "she's in a much better place than we," is such a stupid thing. What do you say? "Just I'm sending all my sympathy to you and all your love ones."

Maw Maw:

I will miss you so much; however, I know that Paw Paw is so happy now that you are there with him - what a wonderful, wonderful birthday present for him that you arrived in Heaven to be with him. I feel so blessed that I was able to be your granddaughter and experience the wonderful times we had. My grandest memories are the times I got to go with you and Paw Paw on the trailer "rallies". I love you and will miss you so much. May God Bless your soul!!!!

Love, Ronnelle

Steve, we are so sorry to learn of your mother's passing. May the memories of her many influences as you progressed through so many of the stages of your life give you strength to confront the sadness of her loss. Losing one's mother leaves such a big void in a child's life. We pray that with God's help you and your family will find the strength to face this period of grief. Please know that our thoughts are with you, Evelyn and the others in your wonderful family.

God rest you, Maw Maw. I'm so blessed to have had you as a grandmother, but most of all, as a friend. I will always remember our special times together, our trips, you showing me New Orleans for the first time, and us drinking a Hurricane together at Pat O'Briens.(1987). We visited with Uncle Bill, Aunt Lillian, and went to the State Fair in Mississippi. The several times we went gambling to Casino Coushada...dinner at your house EVERY week...the yummy broiled flounder, the no-taste low fat/low cholestrol meals. But, most of all, you loved me unconditionally...you always listened through boyfriends, the pains of raising Eric, but you were there...I am internally grateful for having had you in my life. I wish I could've done more for you...Oh, how I will miss you!!!!! I love you so very much...Julie

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone as I cannot come in person to the services. I am thankful for having such a wonderful Godmother - Aunt Evelyn was such a good & kind & sweet person, which is reflected in her own four children, her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. I will always have fond memories of her, especially from my childhood. I know Uncle Buster got the best birthday present ever yesterday. And I know Rose is happy to have Aunt Evelyn join her in Heaven so they can play cards again! Love to all, Mindy
