While I have many fond memories with Uncle Richard and Aunt Joann, I will never forget how kind and compassionate Uncle Richard was to come to Zion, The Cancer Treatment Center, when my husband Tom was dying. He showed such loving concern towards my son Andy, and I. But there were also great boat rides and hospitality in Wisconsin. God has filled the earth with good people and now one has gone Home. Thank you Lord for Uncle Richard´s life on earth!
