Very sad to hear that cousin Richard is no longer with us. I remember all of the crazy antics and stunts we used to get ourselves into almost every summer growing up.
I remember when I was little, locking myself in the bathroom one day and not being able to unlock the door to get out and Rich was there to guide me from the other side and tried to get me to calm down.
He also helped me to put together a model shop in his room. We were using some sort of glue to out it together and I didn't know what bonds instantly meant when he asked what the bottle said after he got it all over his hands. The look on his face was priceless! He always took the time to explain things to me whenever I had that blank look on my face.
Much love Cousin, YOU WILL BE MISSED!
