I met Richard at his Farm through his Sister Annette Pumpkin Patch I enjoyed it. He was friendly I was glad to pray with him when he was in the hospital.

I know you are looking down and can truly be proud of what your family is doing with your farm. Lisa is doing an excellent job with planting, growing and maintaining a beautiful farm stand being able to sell the produce to the community.

So sorry to hear that you passed while we were visiting family. Until health issues got the better of you, we'd always see you working the farm, but never to busy to wave when we drove by. RIP
Your neighbours,
Pat, Kathy, Ian and Brendan Rice

Thelma and family,
David and I are very sad to hear of Rich´s passing. He certainly was a good guy! When I think of him, he is always smiling.
May the love of family and friends and thoughts on a life well-lived bring each of you comfort at this difficult time.
