Counted on Richard as a friend and business mentor.
If there are Bass in Heaven , I bet Richard is fishing. God's blessing on the Hopper family.

Richard changed my life. He believed in me, when no one else did. He saw that I worked hard (at a previous job) & he hired me at Global even though I had no furniture experience & no college education. I will never forget the kindness & trust he showed me. That job was the most important job of my life, & I hoped I made him proud.
