To Doreen and family,
We are sorry to hear of Richard's passing. We understand how difficult it is to go through this time of sorrow and we are praying for you. May you experience God's peace and strength today and in the days that lie ahead. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in time of trouble...Psalm 46:1.

I'm so sorry to hear about uncle Richard's passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to Aunt Doreen and my dearest cousins at this sad and difficult time. I have many fond memories of my uncle, especially his wonderful sense of humour, and his deep commitment as a loving husband and father. He will live on in my heart always. My deepest condolences to his beloved family.

So sorry to hear of Mr. Williams passing. His son, Steve who is a high school friend has shared many memories, pictures and celebrations online through Facebook for us all to see and share. He was a very kind man with a loving family and I will certainly miss those posts! Condolences to the family and God bless!
