My thoughts and prayers go to all of the Wait family. Just found out about Richard. So glad we at Embury had the opportunity to meet Richard and Marie and family. It was great to see a family that knew how to enjoy life and each other and also enjoy the fun programs your family put on for us. God Bless all of you.
