My name is Kevin Thomas, and I lived about 5 houses down from Richie and his family growing up… we played pee wee football together and made many memories that I’ve always held dear to my heart… It makes me sad to hear of my friend going to be with the Lord, but at the same time, it fills my heart with joy to know he’s with our Lord and Savior… sending prayers to all the family. Fly high Longhorns #34, we love you…

I was saddened by the news of Richie's passing and my thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time.   Richie was a warrior on the playing field, but I think we all agree it is his infectious smile that will be missed, but that will live on in each of us who were blessed to have known him.   
I recently met his son Arich at Emporia State University where he is a freshman on their football team, and he has that same infectious smile - a true legacy.  
Rest in Peace Cowboy, Ride On!

To all of the family and friends of the Ansley family, my deepest condolences. I came to Oklahoma State University the same year he did and was one of the sweetest guys to me.  His smile could brighten anyone's day. He will truly be missed and will keep my thoughts and prayers to you all.

God Bless~

Richie was the kindest guy and always had me laughing at Bennett when he was at Oklahoma State University. My heart is saddened by this. I pray for you all. He will be missed. 

I will miss Richie.  He was my friend.  I will think on the memories we made and the moments we spent together, and encapsulize them in my mind for future reference of remembrance of him.  For He was truly a warrior.  I love you Richie.  I will be praying for you Ansley family.  I love you, too.  God bless you.

I am so sorry for your loss Tanisha and the rest of the Ansley family.  May God comfort your heart at this time of sorrow is my prayer,  in Jesus name 🙏 ♥ 

To the family & Friends of The Ansley Family, Richie Ansley  you will be missed by all who loved you Including your family and friends! God bless you all! 

Mr. Ansley, aka Friend 
Just know that I'm praying for and with you and your family in this time of sorrow.  May God continue to comfort your family. As always,  I'm here. D. Harris. 

Russell is a dear friend and I send condolences to him and his family during this time. May the grace of God and peace that surpasses our comprehension rest, rule and abide with you and your family hence now and forevermore. 

To the Ansley family.  You are in mine and my family's prayers.  I went to high school with Richie.  We were on the football team together.   Because I did more watching than playing, I got a chance to see an extraordinary talent in Richie.  He was always a competitor to the end.   Rest easy Richie.

Richie was a great person.  You always knew he was in your corner. 
He was an awesome teammate at Navarro and at Oklahoma State.   I enjoyed playing beside him because he was enthusiastic and intense.  His love for the game of football was infectious and brought out the best in all of us.  I was so fortunate to have learned so much from him.  Richie, you will never be forgotten.  #40.

My condolences to the family during this difficult time. I am saddened to know that Richie is no longer with us. I have great memories of him as a friend and teammate that took the time to mentor me as a freshman. He was a great leader and passionate about playing football. He will be missed, but never forgotten. Black Saturday Ride Out #osu9

You will be missed. Praying for your lovely wife and children. Until we meet again. 

Praying for the family of Richie Ansley.  May God bless and keep the family during these trying times.  Richie was one of the most genuine, athletic, and courageous men I ever met.  It was a distinct honor to play with him and a joy to befriend him. We had such good times.  I feel very blessed to have spent some of his short time here with him.   There will never be another like Richie Rich.   

God bless,

I will always remember his big smile every single time that I saw him. He had a way about him that brightened up the room. He was a good guy that helped me and the younger guys at Oklahoma State. 

Richie Rich I love you brother!  GOD Bless You & your family!  I can still hear that laugh during the middle of the game saying "G Bright, we good!"  #OklahomaStateLinebackers

My heart aches with the loss of my beloved Cousin Richie. My fondest memories of him go back to his early childhood when I first saw him. He was about 5 years of age and dressed up for Sunday School looking like a little man. He was so very handsome and wearing the biggest smile. He was sitting in the back room with his granddad, my uncle Doile. When he was a young man in college, he had a towering presence, bulging muscles and that infectious smile. He would always bring my baggage in from the car, ALWAYS said yes ma'am. Needless to say he was an outstanding athlete. But most of all I remember that he loved the Lord and he knew that the Lord loved him. To his brother, wife and children, may God comfort and keep you in the days ahead. Lovingly, Cousin Brenda

May the Lord gives you the strength you need to face this sad occasion, and may He gives you comfort and healing for the loss of your loved one. 

Yours,

Praying for the family during this difficult time. May God give you peace and comfort. Rest in Heaven fellow Spartan.❤

Me and Russell and Richey lived on the same street thru our Highschool years.  I remember Richie always in the front yard throwing up the Football or playing football somewhere on the street.  He will truly be missed by his family and friends.. 

I am truly sorry to hear about this untimely loss of a good guy! His smile was infectious and his heart was big! They say there is a special bond among men who have been in combat together. I am proud to call Richie my teammate and brother in combat! He was a special guy and will truly be missed. 

My sincere condolences to the entire Ansley family.  Richie and I have been classmates since John B. Hood. You will be truly missed. 

So sorry for your loss and will be praying for you and your family ❤❤

Love you

Me and Richie went to middle school and played ball at John B. Hood.  You will be truly missed..prayers for the family and my extended Spartan family.  

I saw Richie on April 2 and he said he was not afraid and he knew the Lord. Now that I know that, I will see him again. Praying for my classmate Russell. We got you. Your class is with you. Spartans for life. 

Richie was my teammate, my brother at Oklahoma State. He had an infectious smile and a personality the size of Texas. He enjoyed the ride.  That’s what I loved most about him, he enjoyed the ride. I was too uptight, stressed, and serious to do that but when I watched him I got enjoyment out of his passion. I lost touch with him after college. I pray he knew the savior and pray for the peace of God on all his loved ones. 

To many memories to post,roommate at OSU. You will definitely be missed . May God watch over the family doing this time. 

Much Respect Roe Franks

Richie taught me how to play linebacker at osu. He taught us young guys how to act. We thought he was Crazy! But he was a tough dude you didn't want to cross. Man. Hurts thanks always
