Dearest Carol,
I am truly saddened to hear about Richard's passing - he was one in a million! Like you, he was there for us after my Father's passing and continued to be a great friend to our family for years. I stil have the pictures of when Richard had the GTO in a car show in Omaha; those were fun times! I now he much loved that car! I will never forget all the times we spent at your house in Papillion - either for the Christmas holidays or just stopping by to visit. Rich always made me laugh - in person or with his emails!
We will keep you, Jacque, Renee, and Rick in our thoughts and prayers.
All my love
