My love and prayers to all of you. It´s hard to lose a loved one but the consolation is that he has achieved his heavenly reward. His unending faith surely carried him to the pearly gates for admission. He now joins his sisters who I´m sure were waiting with open arms. God takes care of his children and I´m sure he is taking care of Uncle Rich now.Til we meet again

First I wish to offer my sincerest condolences to Aunt Darlene and the entire Family. The greatest memory of Uncle Rich was his ability to make us smile. Thinking of him now would typically be a sad moment without him ... but somehow I know he is helping me to smile again. I offer two of my recent pics to remind us of God's glory know Uncle Rich is smiling too.
