Dave Richard was a classmate of mine at Carlisle High School class of 1954. I am so sorry to hear of his death. I was so looking forward to seeing him at our 50th class reunion this coming year.

Ali and I would both like to express our deepest sympathy and condolences during your time of sorrow.

Dave was a very deep and close friend. He was part of our wedding party when we got married, we always spent quality time together (breakfast, lunch, or just visiting) when we visited Little Rock, and he taught me several of the ins and outs of "arrow head hunting".

Fond memories of our relationship with Dave will remain with us forever.

We will miss you Dave, you were a wonderful and fantastic person . . . .

I've always enjoyed spending my summer vacations in Little Rock, one reason is because Pa Dave would let me help him work in his shop. He didn't seem to mind to much when I forgot to put up a tool I was using. Thank you Pa Dave. Love you - Kendall
