I wished we could have talked again before you passed. I looked for you but wasn't able to find you or others that may want to find me. Your Son

My condolences to you Zandra and your family. You and Mr. Richard were surrogate parents who welcomed me onto your hearts and home, for that you gave me a gift beyond measure. I pray that God wraps his arms around you and yours as you find peace and rest from a long struggle. May you find comfort in all of the memories of good times and laughter. He was a man to leave a lasting impression of how a gentleman treats a lady. All of our love.

Zandra and Family,
My thoughts are with you and the family at this time. I know it has been a long battle but you are strong and Richard knew how much the family loved him. Please take of your selves and each other and know he lived a long, good life surrounded by a loving family. Mary

I am grateful for the time and expertise Richard brought to his work with me 25 years ago now. Without his help our phone system would never have been done as well or as quickly as it was done. My prayers are with you Zandra and with your family.

Dear Zandra and family,
You are in my thoughts and prayers. Richard was such a great fellow, but he also had a wonderful family to support and love him, especially during the last several years. May you be sustained by great memories. Much love, IKE

My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Richard was certainly 'one of kind' and I am glad that I crossed paths with him in this lifetime. I always think of the song, "When a Man Loves a Woman" when I think of Richard because he loved his Zandra. May God bless you and ease your grief with the wonderful memories that Richard leaves behind.
