Richard Gil Obituary

In loving memory of our beloved, Richard C. Gil. It's been one year since you were called home to be with our Lord and Savior. There is not a day that goes by that you are not thought of or missed. Your presence is such a void that will never be filled. Your wife and children are forever grateful for the husband and father you were. Your love, sacrifice and dedication to your family will never go unnoticed. We were so blessed to have had you in our lives as long as we did.

Memories of you stay fresh in our hearts. You will never be forgotten.

Until we see you in Heaven, May God keep you safe in His loving arms.

Continue to rest in peace.

All our love, your loving wife and children, Mama, Cindy, Sylvia, Jesse, John and Linda.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
