I met Richard channel walking at the swim center Feb 2022 and we became best friends. Richard was a very unique, spirited, earnest gentle man. His smile was contagious and met people easily. I never heard him speak ill of anyone. He looked at life as an adventure and lived each one to the fullest in all of his 93 years. He had Christian principals and was always helping others. His hobby was building models of airplanes & boats-some had remotes so he could fly his biggest plane and take his boats down to the lake and zip them around!! I am one of the thousands of people he knew that will miss him very much. God truly Blessed Richard. My dear one, when we meet again, I will be the one with my halo crooked, and we will laugh together again! Love, De
