To the Linton Family...my thoughts and prayers are with you all. Richard was a customer of mine for about 14 years. He was proud of his family and also spoke many times of the back to back basketball state championships won by Richmond Hill, while his son Richard played.

Words are so inadequatic to express one's feelings, particularly when death takes the life of a loved one. I know Richard will be greatly missed, but isn't it wonderful to know he is without pain and suffering and with the lord. My deepest sympathy is extended to you and your family in the loss of one so dear. It is hard to give up your Husband but comforting to know that one day you will be reunited.
