Our family is saddened at the passing of Richard. It has been many years since I have lived near enough to visit with him.
I remember that as a child he was a lively, fun-loving child. I saw him as a teenager or young adult and was impressed with his artistic ability. Although he had a visual challenge he had a great eye for color and artistic detail. He also showed great determination, evident in his personality and spirit. I regret that I did not know my cousin better. He was close in age to my precious sister, Marleen, who went to be with the Lord in 2005. It's possible that he and she are becoming reacquainted in
Heaven. Our thoughts and prayers are that the Promise of Eternal Life in Jesus Christ brings comfort and peace at this time of sorrow. Mary E. Lewis, Jane Sheffield,
