So sorry to hear this news! Richard was always happy to see us when we came to Lakeside! We will never forget how sweet he was to Zeke. He would always give him a bowl of ice cream and Zeke still thinks fondly of him. Our sympathies go out to his sweet wife Kathy and family. Kevin, Amy and Zeke Young

Kathy- so sorry to hear about Richard. Prayers for you and your family. Richard was a character and always made me laugh with his one liners and critiques of the Hogs. He made the world’s best quesadilla! Hoping he is getting to play all kinds of golf with St Peter! Love -Gretchen Hicks
