Gosh, I don’t even know where to begin; Richard was my dearest cousin and I truly loved that man. He was everything a man should be... faithful, loving, kind, thoughtful, great sense of humor,loving, generous, honest.. etc. so many fond memories of him, each time my late mother and I went to  California, I looked forward to staying with my Auntie Penny and Uncle Ralph and my cousins.

I remember us dancing on the balcony at his daughter Dawns wedding. We danced like teenagers... but the next day we both paid for it with aches and pains. He  was just the BEST and I will truly miss his texts and phone calls. Rest In Peace dear cousin. I love you.
