Richard was a young boy when I last saw him 35 plus years ago. He was quiet and reserved and showed good manners. He comes from a nice and loving family. His passing reminds me of many things I loved those many years ago and often conjure in my mind now. We are branches of the same tree. Rest easy Richard. May God bless you and your family.
