Happy birthday dear nephew, just one day late. Ha! I had good intentions to write here yesterday and the day just escaped me! I cannot believe you would have been 30 today. Now, you are just forever young! I hope you and Uncle Richard have found one another. If not, look for him, he is there! When you find him, sneak up behind him and yell BOOO but watch out he may try to punch you! I found that out once upon a time although he missed when he swang! Lol Sure do miss you. Wish you were here but God had a plan for you...I know it was a grand one. Your mama sure misses you. Whisper in her ear and let her know you are ok. ♥️

I love you. Until we meet again....
Love,
Auntie

Richard, this would have been your 30th birthday. What I wouldn't give to give you birthday wishes, a big cake... Just to do what we used to do. Cop a squat on a curb and eat or vinegar chicken wings. I felt you today... I know it was you giving me the luck to win today. Thank you soon. You were the funniest .... A trickster. Great smile, good looks affecting in between. I'm waiting for the day we are each other again

Momma

Yeah, I know, I still suck with it comes to stating my feelings.

“Lil” Richard, I love you, think of you often nephew, knowing the struggles we would face together at times surrounding our disease of type 1 diabetes, you , were always the light of many peoples world, no one more than your mom, to this day she loves you and misses you, a mother’s heart never heals when she loses a child, she just finds a way to refuel her energy, to keep on going, your mom is a wonderful person and she still takes care of grandma, your 49er’s had a great year, one game from the Super Bowl, love you Richard and will never forget you.

Uncle Russ ❤️

My son my son my son
Would have 29 this year... Is really would have loved to see how you have grown but instead you are in heaven... Forever 22... Mom sure did miss you and all your trickery, even mid your anger! Just miss you a whole lot. Feels as if you just left...
I gotta go., I just start sobbing when I try to write.... I'll keep trying. I love you
How to see you sooner then later... Tell Whoever runs it up there to give me a break, do I really deserve all the trials and tribulations I go thru everyday? If you can, please make it stop, your mom is very tired. Miss you big hugs

Hi Little Rich! I cannot believe that today mark's 6 years since you left Earth! I hope you know how much I love you. We miss you every single day. I think about you all the time, especially when funny things happened here around the house. Now, I have to wonder if it's you or Uncle Richard. Please tell him hello for me when you see him and that I miss him and love him too! I can see you both sitting back, telling stories, laughing! You have plenty of good company there in heaven but we sure do miss you here. Please ask God to keep protecting us and loving us and to give your mom serenity. Until we see each other again, a very very long time from now, I love you and I miss you. You know it doesn't matter if I'm not there for a hundred years because I know we will have eternity together and we will never miss each other again. Love you.

Hi Little Rich... You will always be a little Rich to your auntie! You would be 28 this year. That just seems so weird. I still can't believe you aren't here on Earth anymore. Knowing how hard it is for me to believe it and understand why, I cannot imagine what your mom must go through. Stay close to her, she misses you So much. I don't know what birthdays look like in heaven... I hope however it is that family and friends are gathered with you. Know that us here on Earth are thinking of you and wishing you were here. I love you.

Hi Rich, year no. 5. How can that be? 5 years! I have a candle burning near the mug your mom gave me. I was certain this was the fourth year but then I looked and I could not believe, 2015. I think of you everyday. I am sure you have been around playing tricks on your auntie again. Lol This year, I found Caroline's ball high up on the grape arbor. It had to have been you because why would anyone put a dog's ball up there unless they were playing a trick. Dallas and Maggy are gone now, I don't know if I told you that. Look for them in heaven. I'm sure they Will be so excited to see someone they know. I wish you were all here. just wanted to let you know I've been thinking about you a lot lately, I love you, I miss you and Look forward to more of your tricks or just a hello. We miss you here sweet boy. Love always, your auntie Cheryl.

Hi Rich, I cannot believe another year without you has gone by! I think about you all the time and I know you are here occasionally, Playing Tricks on your auntie. That's okay, I enjoy the visits. The world is crazy down here, some viruses going around trying to take people. Please send reinforcements from God and angels to protect the world. We all miss you so much. It seems weird to wish you a happy Heavenly birthday. I still cannot believe that you're gone. I love you and miss you everyday.

Love your auntie

My goodness, 4 years have passed. I will never ever forget the phone call or the sound on the other end. It is forever on my mind. I think of you so often and wish I could see you just one more time. You are one of God's angels and I know you are looking down on us and playing tricks. Uncle Richard even believes it now. Lol. We miss you so much. I know one day we will share stories again. Say hello to everyone. I love you sweet boy. Keep sending your mom signs and reasons to smile. ❤❤❤❤❤

Happy St Patricks Day. Hope you have something green on. So....Another birthday gone...i sat alone at the park,1 single red balloon in hand..it was 4 20 so i had a puff and blew it up to you. Shhhh nobody knew... havent told anyone what i did.
Still have a hard time getting my thoughts down. They are just stuck in my head keeping me up all night. Im so tired son. Sleep doesn't come easy for me.. i lay my head down and all these visions come rushing through. Visions of you... your life, your passing, bad times and good times.
Missing you so much
Love you

Well son, it's almost your birthday....i hate that you are gone. Im consumed by my thoughts if missing you, how you passed, were you in pain. Did you try to calling? If you did, did i not hear the phone? Im so sorry i wasn't able to help you. That guilt consumes me. If only people knew or felt my REAL PAIN, instead of just seeing my pretbd happiness. Dammit son...I'm hurting inside terribly with no way to express it. Im the only person who lives in your memory.... Evety chance that i get to mention you, think of you, yell at YOU...i take it. No worries my son my son my son.. Your mother will never ever stop sharing your story. Sad no body will listen.
I MISS you. RIP

You've been playing lots of tricks on your auntie! I know you're there. Just wish I could see you. Someone called me the other day, their voice sounded so much like yours. It took me aback for a moment and then I remembered. Wish i could talk to you ao you could fill me in on things. It was just Halloween. The picture in the bright red wig popped up and I remember you said to your mom, wow, auntie looks so young! Do I still look young. Lol. Miss you, sweetie. I love you.

Missing you TERRIBLY. Your autopsy report has me spinning. I'm speechless, in shock, SICK TO MY STOMACH! Why? Son..... Why did we lose communication that 3 wks prior of you becoming MY ANGEL! WHY? Why couldn't I get you on the phone? Couldn't leave voice mail, phone just rang.
I felt that you were in pain, really sick, even sad.
So, I'm speechless, with so much to say. Not sure how to say it,or put it into words. Grrrrr. Praying, hoping and wishing that someday, the words will find a way to you.
I miss you.
RIP MY SON MY SON MY SON

Rich, couldn't do much on your 1st year "ANGEL" BIRTHDAY. I'M so at a loss for words. My memories of you are very real. Hate it when reality sinks in. Want to see you one more time. See that twinkle in your eye, your smile that warned my heart.
Not a minute goes by without you in my mind.
I miss you son

Richard,
It has been 1 year ago today that you left us. We will never forget you and I know your mom still misses you so much. The Holidays are difficult as that is a time for family to gather and reflect. It will never be the same without you. We rejoice that you are with our savior and I know you are watching over your mom. We love you my dear nephew. RIP Lil' Richard and Go Raiders!

Not a moment goes by without some memory of you, a glimpse of that smile, or the sound of your laugh.....it was so contagious, I LOVE your smile...your heart was bigger than you even know. so warming.
It's sad that you had no idea just how many people cared for you. When you smiled and gave someone a hug, Im told it made their day.
