"Uncle Richard - we will miss you greatly! You were an amazing person! We will always have fond memories of the times we shared with you and the family."

Richard was a wonderful friend and partner to my family as we traveled the world of dialysis together. He was always cheerful each and every time we saw him. We are grateful that God chose to allow him to be a part of our lives. He will surely be missed.  From the Wheatfall Family

For an amazing father and grandfather who was truly one-of-a-kind. I love you and miss you, daddy ♡ Until we meet again.

To the best dad in the whole world. We were truly blessed to have you as our dad. Thank you for everything that you've done for me throughout my entire life. You truly took great care of your family and I could not have asked for anything more. I will miss you dearly everyday of my life and will cherish every single memory of you and the good times we had. I will also miss your sense of humor. Life is going to be SO hard, and will never be the same without you, but I look forward to the day I will see you again...I love you Dad with all my heart!! <3

I was saddened hear of the passing of yet another great man but it warms my knowing that Richard and my dad will be up there together, maybe shooting pool :) All my love and prayers go out to you Yumiko, Jen, Joey and Tiff.

Richard wasn't only my friend, he was also my family. Thank you Richard for been part of my life. I will miss you.
