Condolences to Richard’s family. Richard always greeted people with a warm smile. He had great faith and was firm in his convictions. When he attended church at Hope Presbyterian he was accompanied by his loving daughter Amy who was very dedicated to her Dad.
We are so sorry to hear of Richard’s passing.
I’m not sure he would even remember me and I know his family never met me. But he was a neighbor when I was a child and I remember him and his mother well, with fond memories. I’m sorry for his loss.
So sorry to hear about Dickie, as we called him in school. He was such a carrying person. We use to see each other at Mooresville Kroger and always visited. So pleasant to talk to. Will always remember him as one of my favorite classmates. Louise Swinney Robinson Class of 1962
