WE MOURN THE DEPARTURE OF A MAN WE HAVE KNOWN AND LOVED FOR A VERY LONG TIME. In an hour like this, our souls are stirred to their very depths for we come to pay tribute of one who has been near and dear to us for many years. In such an hour as this words seem to be poor objects with which we must fashion the innermost feelings and thoughts of our hearts. How difficult it becomes to put into words those things that should be spoken. What an awesome reunion that must have been when he answered the Call of Our God to Come Home. We love you Richard: Yes, You will rest in peace.

MISS ME - BUT LET ME GO When I come to the end of the road, and the sun has set for me. I want no rites in a gloom filled room. Why cry for a soul set free. Miss me a little, but not for long, and not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we once shared, Miss me, but let me go. For this is a journey that we all must take, and eac must go alone. It's all a part of the Master's plan, a step on the road to home. When you are lonely and sick at heart, go to the friends we know. And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds. Miss Me - But let me go!
