Perry Richards was one of those guys who always made you feel welcome, and was fun to be around. Because of him not once did I feel like an outsider at the Foogle family reunions. He is a great man who will be missed. The world seems a little more dark without him. I send prayer and love to the Richard family. My the Lord leave you with only the best of memories and the comfort in knowing that there is no suffering where he is today. I am truly sorry for your loss.
