I will never forget Richard; he was there when I began in the Masons twenty years ago. He was there when I raised my son too. More than a regular he gave of his time and talent. He held a standard that few today strive for and fewer reach. Regretfully, I am now in Kentucky, and could not attend, but I know in this life of struggle and work is Richard is now at peace. With a smile and a glint in his eye, Richard is now laboring from above and still helping us here below.
