Rich,
You always treated us with so much respect each time we saw you. We are thankful we got to visit you in the hospital before you passed and to say a prayer for you. I pray that through that prayer you found Jesus, and we see you on the other side one day. As they told us you could hear..
Your son Whitney prayed with us, and we enjoyed meeting him. Our prayers to your family at this time.
Your Friends Tony & Ro
Today I am taking a moment to honor Richard. While our paths eventually took us in different directions ,after 38 years of marriage, I will always remain grateful for the memories we made. You were Poppy Richard, to Macayla, Gregory and Madison Cleeves, Timothy, Michael and CHristopher Ryan. Stepfather to Kathryn Moriarty (Ryan) Christine Moriarty (Cleeves) and Thomas Moriarty. I will always be grateful to him for traveling to far away places. He taught me how to find a good bargain. He loved going to the pool regularly to be with his friends. He loved his dog Cody and later Bella. He was a friendly man who was liked by all. He will be missed by all that knew him. Rest In Peace ! With Loving Memories , Rose
Goodbye, Richard. Thank you for being a part of our family’s story for so many years and for the love you showed our young children as their Poppy Richard. Wishing you peace, and wishing comfort to all who are grieving your loss.
Love always,
Christine & Charlie
