Dear Mrs Nevin, we are so very sorry to hear of Richard's passing. I grew up in the same neighborhood as him, then was lucky to meet you when Donna had you for a teacher at T.M.S. Years Later. You and your family and I remember Jennifer well from the old neighbor hood have our deepest sympathy in this sad time. We also are sending prayers. The Barr and Angott and Donna Naser and family

Dear Janet,
When you lose someone very precious, no one else can really know all that you feel. May the love of God give you peace. May the love of family and friends give you comfort.
With thoughts of sympathy,
Phil Moses

So sorry to hear of Richard passing. I knew him through Janet as she and I worked together at The Church of the Covenant. I pray that you'll be able to celebrate his eternal life every bit as much as you miss him. God's grace and peace to you!

Although it´s been several decades since I´ve been in his music class, the impact Mr Nevin had on our lives has stayed with me all these years. Mr Nevin was a beacon of kindness, creativity, and encouragement. He had a way of making each of us feel special and valued.
I often think of him as a musical Mr Rogers, radiating warmth and understanding while teaching us about harmony; not just in music, but how we treat each other.
Please know that my thoughts are with you during this difficult time. The joy and confidence he instilled in so many of us are his enduring legacy. I´ll forever be grateful to have had him as a teacher.

Rick was one of the nicest men I worked with. Always had that big smile on his face. I am so sorry we lost him. The world has less music in it without him. God bless you, Janet, as you heal.
