Jeep was a friend in the high school days at Bloomington, Indiana when he was a wrestler. His birthday was a month and one day before mine. He dated my sister, Ruby Davis, who was a cheerleader. He was always well loved by all who knew him. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family as you learn to live without him.

Joyce, So sorry to hear about Richard. I pray the Lord will bring you and your family great comfort during the difficult time. I always enjoyed talking with Richard and you when you were in to see Dr. Steele, which seems like only yesterday, it's hard to believe it has been several years now. You were both very dear people.
