Dear Nancy and Donald,
I am sorry for your loss. Richard was bigger than life and was a very generous and fun loving man. I was hoping to attend the service today and sadly couldn't attend but please know my thoughts and prayers go with your entire family.
I will miss playing golf with Richard and hanging out shooting pool but I hope he's in a better place. Best of luck with everything in the coming weeks.
Sincerely,
Jim Buckley

Dear Nancy and Donald
I am sorry for your loss and all that you are going thru. May you find peace.My family still talks about the trip when the girls were young and we visited at the lake with you. Nancy you were always so fun and giving and Richard was always so young at heart,so eager to show the girls how to tube and embrace the excitement of going a little too fast which seems to be the way he lived his life,always on the edge and full of life. Rest in Peace Richard

My condolences to Richard's family and friends. I will miss him so much and will forever remember his kindness and big heart. I will remember the last time I saw him, the day before he fell ill, never knowing that those would be our last words or last hug. Richard, I hope you find someone great in heaven to play golf or shoot pool with. Your memory will live on in the many lives you have touched. I will always be comforted in knowing that our last words were I love you. And I always will. XOTW
