Richard was a good friend of ours when he lived in Baton Rouge.  I often fussed at him for his chain smoking. After he moved back to Alabama he stopped smoking  because of breathing problems. When he came into town to see his  beloved grand daughter we and a few friends would try to go to dinner and visit. He was a kind   Humble man and a good listener.  He always had time for his friends .  We have tried for months to find him. When last we spoke he was in the hospital where  he had been for three months.we told him we were praying for him and missed him.  I know the biggest regret  in life was the estrangement of his sons. I can only hope that he found some peace  about that  before his passing.
