Dear Lilly Mae: We were so sad to hear about Richards death he was one of my really best friends and hunting buddies we had some really good times on Polka Mountain. He was always there when I needed him and helped me a lot and I will always love him and never forget him . I knew in my heart Richard was a christian because we had those private talks between each other that only friends would have.
May God be with this family at this time and wrap his arms around them and give them peace that passes all understanding and know someday they will see him again in heaven.

So sad to hear. I knew Richard from Affiliated Foods. Worked many years together. Strange thing is I haven't seen him in about 20 years but was actually thinking about him just the other day and was going to look him up on FB. So sad. He was a nice guy. My prayers for the family. I live in Israel but wish I could attend services.
