My prayers for your family during this time of loss. I will miss my big hug from
Bro. Buddy..I always made sure that I got that loving hug from him & that sweet smile he always gave me. Heaven is a better place for him &  I will see you again & I'm sure we'll have to hug!!

My Papa was the best Papa in the world.
He has drove me to work ever Tuesday and Friday for the last 10 yrs. He  always pulled in my driveway at 9:30 A.M. just in case we had to stop for a train. He taught me to always be on time for work.

I will see you in Heaven Papa

Goodbye Papa, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Little children everywhere
When you see them I'll be there.
We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons have all gone.

And every time when I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground

I love you Daddy,

May the Holy Spirit be a great comforter in this time of loss. May God lead, guide and direct your path in the days ahead. God will strengthen and uphold you. I am blessed everyday with the love from this family and may you feel a great uplift in your spirits as all of us keep you in our prayers. I love you so much.

Earth just lost an amazing man But Heaven gained another Angel. Mr Rich will be missed as he was truly an outstanding person.  Dave and Arlene Cooke
