Thanks Richard C for letting me be a part of your life. Our time was short but powerful. One man helping another is a special gift that is mutually beneficial.
Rest in peace my brother. Enjoy the "big meetin" in the sky. You will know the room, it is where the coffee smell is powerful, cigarette smoke pouring out the door and all the folks having a heck of a time.
May our maker wrap his arms around your family and grant them health, prosperity, and happiness.

Although I never met Richard III, I had met his Dad, and I met his Mom many times when she was at Forest Park Cemetery. I would be at the Cade grandparents gravesite caring for their site & Mildred would stop by. If you were a Cade, she was happy to talk to you. What an awesome, extended family that I'm proud to be a member of. My prayers are with you & your family at this time.

I knew Richard in junior high (middle school, now). He was funny, energetic and a good guy. May he rest in peace.
