My Uncle Richard
Growing up as a kid I remember coming down to the Country and spending lots of time with Uncle Richard on the Herbert Farm. He would come to the house while I was there and show me around the farm. Most of the time he probably had to carry me when I was afraid of the cows or goats. LOL I spent many summers with Uncle Richard and Aunt Betty splashing in the pool and just enjoying their company. As I grew up I wanted to come down to the Country but never made it as my own life interrupted my plans. And I never did get a chance to say goodbye to him.
But I know that the memories he instilled in me run deep! Thank you for everything Uncle Richard.....
