  3. I met Richard over 23 years ago. My nephews grand father, and my sister (Terras) father. I’m so thankful to have met him and to say I’ve been in several settings with him for family gatherings and celebrations. I grew to love him as my family as well. I deeply saddened by his passing. I’ll miss him but to know he’s in heaven blesses spirit. Praying for Susan may God strengthen you through this time. To the rest of the family I’m sorry for your loss and I extend my prayers to you as well. Rest well Richard, you’ve done an amazing job here on earth.

  14. Richard was always kind, and had a great smile, with a friendly personality to go along with it. He had a way of making the atmosphere a gathering pleasant, and filled with laughter. He continuously sowed seeds of encouragement, kindness, and peace that I believe will continue to spread through humanity like ripples in a pond. A man my husband and I respected immensely!
