Richard's Family, I took care of Richard at Christian Care, he was a very nice person i will never forget him!
I remember going to Uncle Rich's house and eating pounds of fish -until my stomach would burst! He was always kind to me and my sisters and we always looked forward to seeing him. He will be truly missed.##imported-begin##Stephen Hart##imported-end##

I had the pleasure of knowing Rich through working at Christian Care as the Activity Director. Rich always loved all of the church services, hymn sings and devotionals. He was always good at all the of the sporting activities as well. And Rich loved his sweets whenever possible! We had some really nice times on outings for a recent fall river boat trip and trips to Meijer Gardens to see the butterflies and to the ice cream socials when his sister was living at Christian Care Senior Care. It was a pleasure to have known Rich and to have been able to spend the time we did. My deepest sympaties to Rich's family during this sad and difficult time.
With love and prayers, Tami##imported-begin##Tami Tufts##imported-end##
I was saddened to hear that Uncle Rich passed away. I wish to express my sympathy to all of his family and friends. I have many memories of Uncle Rich & Aunt Clarissa. The times we got together and had those perch dinners. Also, I enjoyed going to visit Uncle Rich with my brother Charles while he was in the nursing home. I'm sorry I won't be able to attend the memorial service.
Sincerely,
