A life well lived. I am grateful to have known him, however briefly and mostly via Christmas correspondence, and happy to know that so many of his offspring are loving life and continuing to make him proud of you all. My sympathies to you as you approach your first Christmas without him.

For a beloved uncle, who loved life and his family even more. Uncle Richard will be missed on earth, but dwells eternally with the Lord. My sympathy for my dad, his brother, and all 6 of his wonderful children. Love and blessings!

All of you are in our prayers today. Your dad was always so kind and loving to me. While I am happy for him that he is finally reunited with your mom, I feel for all of you - knowing that you miss him terribly. I'm sure you know that he was a very special person to many people. He touched my life at a time when I had just lost my own dad - I appreciated both he and your mom more than I can say. Thank you for sharing him! Bless your hearts -

My deepest condolences go out to Richard Scheirman's entire family. He has left a legacy of charitable and loving children and grandchildren and I'm sure his great grandchildren will follow suit. I knew Richard, although briefly, thru his daughters Kathy and Jane. This is a difficult time, but I know that his life was full and he was deeply loved.
