    I was truly blessed to be able to call him my uncle and the bond we had was unbreakable. Most people do not have a bond with their great uncle’s like he and I did. Uncle Richard was their for every big event in my mine and my children’s lives. Even just Sunday dinners at my grandma’s you could always count on uncle Richard to be there. It sure will be strange not seeing him any more. But you are with Aunt Ida and Steve now and I know you will always be there by my side. I already miss u like crazy. And I am praying for all of my family to find peace during this time.
