Hi Richard,I just wanted to let you know that I am missing our conversations, us talking about life and jobs and stuff. There's been some jobs I have done I could have used your advise on.Before you passes away, I was going to ask you to come join me as an advisor like a job supervisor, it's weird that your not around to talk to. You asked me 2 weeks before you passed if I wanted to buy your equipment, and I said I am not ready now, but I am now and I don't know who to ask about it, and you asked me if you could go look at some jobs with me, I'm sorry we never got together that week, maybe things  would have turned out differently for you if we had. I miss you man. I was talking to Sammy yesterday and he misses you also. Phil, RIP Richard,

Kids and grandchildren, I know you know but As Richards friend , you should know that he lived for you guys. When he spoke of family he would light up, he really love and worship every minute he could spend with you guys, he would brag of all of your accomplishments, I loved hanging out with him because he was real, honest,loving, and thoughtful, I am glad him and I got to be together for the last part of 2013, and rebuilt our friendship of 29 years, Richard you made a mark in people's lives. R.I.P. your in my prayers Richard.Your buddy,Phil Castorena

Dear Kim,

Mike and I were heart broken yesterday to hear of Richard's passing!  Words cannot begin to express how sorry we are for your loss!  You  and your family are in our hearts and prayers...we just wish there was something more that could be said or done that could help!  

God Bless,
Colleen & Mike Cullinane

My thoughts were on all of you today. Growing up with the Wheeler family will always be a treasure. Dickie you will be missed by so many. Go and pave the roads to heaven for someday we will all be together again until then RIP my long time friend

Richard was a big man with an even bigger heart. I will never forget the kindness he showed to my family so many years ago. My prayers for all the Wheeler Family at this time.

Rest in Peace Mr Wheeler. Your family loves you. Watch over them until they can be with you again.

We will always remember Richards blue eyes, his big smile, his giving and caring heart, he was a real friend of our family for over 25 yrs, we have so many good memories of him coming by our home and visiting our dad, and them doing jobs together. He always showed us attention, I speak for my bro Matt sisters Christy, & Mandy, Heather Castorena, we will miss your dad Richard, all of you be strong.

  KIM AND FAMILY: RICHARD WAS SUCH A SPECIAL MAN, A GENTLE GIANT IS HOW I WILL REMEMBER HIM.  WE'VE KNOW HIM FOR SO MANY YEARS.  HE WAS A BROTHER, FRIEND, AND  BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AND AGAIN SUCH A SPECIAL MAN.  HE WILL BE SORELY MISSED AND LOVED FOREVER. OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS, TIM AND CAROL SIGMAN

 We knew Dickie for almost 48 years and he was a great guy. Our heart felt condolences and prayers go out to all his family. He truly will be missed.

Dear Kristy, Richard, Jr., Brianna, and Lizabeth, no bond is as great as that between a parent and child. Our deepest condolences are with all of you as you grieve the loss of your father, Richard. We will miss his smiling face very much.

Breann Whilst I only met  your daddy a few times his love for you radiated through.  He will always be there to watch over you and guide you all. Both Jeff & I send our prayers to you and your entire family.

Our thoughts, prayers and memories will always be with you, Kim and the family.  Dickie was loved by so many and he will be remembered the same.  He was a great Brother-In-Law, Uncle and Great-Uncle!  Much love is sent your way.  Love to all.  Diana Powell, Tony & Brandi Epperson and BJ Wheeler
