Richard Newcomb, as a young adult and so not interested in much of what the family had to say I found you so interesting and enjoyed your company. You made me feel special. Wished I had spent more time with you while you lived here in Portland. Later I spent time with you on the internet and realized what I had missed. What a sweet man you were and I will miss you.

Richard Newcomb, A Very Gentle Man With A Big Heart For Family And Friends. Uncle Richard Shared His Life And Talked To Me About His Love Of Planes, UltraLites, How To Build Them, I Was Just A Young Child Then, But He Took Time Out For Me. Later In His Life I Observed Just How Much He Love His Wife When She Having Health Issues, I Learn Alot From This Peaceful Man.  You Will Be Surely Missed By All

We honor your service to your country and fellow man through your years spent in the Civil Air Patrol.  Clear skies and smooth flying.

For you Daddy: 
 
I Have A Father Who Talked With Me 
 
 I have a father who talked with me 
 Allowed me the right to disagree 
 To question, and always answer me 
 As well as he can-and truthfully 
 He talked of adventures: horrors of war 
 Of life, its meaning: what love was for 
 How each would always need to strive 
 To improve the world to keep it alive 
 Stressed the duty we owe each other 
 To be aware each man is a brother 
 Words for laughter he also spoke 
 A silly song or a happy joke 
 Time runs along, some say I'm wise 
 That I look at life with seeing eyes 
 My heart is happy, my mind is free 
 I have a father who talked with me

Every once in a while, a remarkable man touches your life, and  Richard was exactly that - a remarkable man.  He was "big brother" and  friend to me.  We had a wonderful camraderie, and were privileged in  our later years to spend several vacations together for special family  gatherings.  Our last wonderful week together was just one year ago,  June 2011.  All 3 of us brothers were together here in New England for  the most special week in our lives.  All those great memories of  Richard will fill my heart forever.  Love, Joe

Daddy, I miss you with all of my heart. It's not the same without our daily phone calls. You and mother are finally back together and can dance the time away. I love you
