Julie and all of the family, my deepest sympathy to all of you.
Mary Ann Mieth
I love how you guys got to travel together and spend so much time together enjoying your adventures! Loving your family and friends! Richard always kept the conversations going. We enjoyed our boat ride in Florida and our dinners in Indy. We will miss him!
Love,
Jim & Brenda Hood
fine man ,will be missed.
Julie
You were a wonderful wife and Caregiver to Richard
You know how much he loved you for all did for him
My husband was approached by Richard because we have a sign on our mailbox that Fred is a Vietnam Vet, so was Richard, they started to share experiences and he would come to the house and talk. Then they discovered that they had the same cancer caused by Agent Orange. They shared their journey and we are ever so sad that Richard lost that fight so soon.
The first time we met Richard, he took the time to ask us about our lives, our interests, our families. He always had a smile and loved every dog he ever met (and they loved him!). He told us on more than one occasion that he was so happy that Julie had new friends that were “her age.” His love for Julie was so apparent. He loved his Florida home and described the view from his lanai as “WOW.” We’ll miss you Richard. Rest easy.
