Gina and Jeffrey

I was saddened to hear about the death of Richard, especially since his own father died about six weeks earlier. Please accept my condolences, I remember how much my mother liked him. We should all take comfort and the fact that he was a Christian and he’s waiting to go to a better place.

I'm so sorry to hear about Richard.  I had lost contact with him over the last several years, but I  have many fond memories of softball as well as other social events. Prayers  for all loved ones. God bless all.

The old Farm Boy softball team from Dallas. Richard was a great outfielder. RIP.

I lost contact with Richard over the years, but we had great times at the Dallas OC. Richard loved playing softball and this is a photo of the Dallas SF OC team., 1985.

Tammie and family, I have so many special memories of Richard and this news is heartbreaking.  He was one of a kind and I'm blessed to have known him! He trained me at SF and he taught me so much, and always made me smile and laugh.  I remember spending the weekend with you all in Illinois and what a wonderful treat that was.  Greg and I are sending our love, thoughts and prayers.

Tammy and family so sorry to hear of your loss. Richard was one of the first friends I made in Arizona. He was so kind hearted. He was a great mentor when helping me learn my new role.  He was always positive. A great family man and good friend to many. Hugs to you all.

Lopez family, wishing you comfort as you grieve during this difficult time.  Peace be with you all.
Richard exuded the vibe of, "No Bad Day".   He exhibited positivity, greeted everyone with a huge smile and kindness, and never lost that Texas charm.  He was great in the IT Profession but probably should have been a Sports Journalist because he was always good for a healthy sports conversation, which I greatly appreciated.
Even though he has moved from Texas to Heaven, I'm sure he will pull together a great heavenly Golf Tournament.  Hit'em 'good' bro!

Tammy & Family,

We were saddened at the news of Richards passing.  Richard was always a pleasure to talk and work with.  I have many great memories, when several of us were Team Leads in the Support Center together.   As you cherish the memories, remember too that he impacted many lives, and all of us will miss him in our own way.  

 I am praying that the peace and comfort of Jesus,  be with you and your family during this time. 

God bless, 
John & Juanita Sanchez 
Sugar Hill, Georgia

I hope there’s golf, softball, and Bud Light in heaven! We grew too old to play softball, but reminiscing about it was nearly as fun!

I am so sorry to hear about the Passing of Richard. My name  is Dee, Demitres Hopkins I met Richard and  Tammy  at State Farm through Marcia Short Wittler, and we also had a Softball team together all of us.
