A gentle soul, a quiet giant, could talk your ear off if he caught you at one of the local grocery stores....He was dedicated to a job that must have been spectacular as he didn't get paid much for it, he loved his Parker High sports and was forever a fixture in the weight room...he bent the ear of many a weight lifter of storys of his neices and nephews throughout the years that passed through the halls of Parker High....I loved him more then anyone will ever know because he taught me that life is not measured by the things we have, but by the people we touch....Rest in Peace little brother....

godspeed rich, you'll be missed, you were a part of Parker high and a person who enjoyed the game of football. from all us from the class of 1978, we will miss you!

Our deepest sympathies to Richard's family. I too am sorry to have missed his service, we were classmates.....along time ago. Funny, friendly, and with an easy very easy manner about him, he was joy to be around and know. I will miss my friend. 

Class of 78

Our deepest sympathy to the family of  very special Richie. I first met Richie at Saguaro Chevrolet in 1983, where I started working, and worked with him for 13 years.  He was kind and generous,would do anything for anyone, anytime. I remained friendly with Richie, always getting an update of his life.  I was sorry to have missed his service, I know it was very nice.  Richie was known by many, liked by all.  he was truly an Icon at the Chevrolet dealership in Parker.  A friend, Kit

Our sympathies to Richy's family.  May God grant you peace in the days ahead.

Richy, though I never knew you, you must have been a very special person because you were my sister in laws brother. May you rest in peace.

Richy, my brother. I will remember the sweet boy, and find peace in knowing he is in a better place. A special child, a good man, and a precious soul...

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.
