Your memory is my keepsake, with which we'll never part. God has you in his keeping.We have you in our heart.
Sadly missed but not forgotten. We will always love you.

I miss you, Richard. You were the closest to having a brother I will ever have. I'll always regret that we didn't get a chance to talk much over the past decade. You were a great athlete, a great person, a great cousin, and a true friend who made my childhood a lot less lonely.

Richard was a very loving man with a big heart and a wonderful sense of humor. Oh how he used to make me laugh! He was so good to me and i'm so blessed to have had his friendship and even though we had our differences I always kept up with him through Bobby. I am so sorry for your loss.
