My prayers and sympathy to Mark, Paul,Tim and their families. I was surprised to hear of Richard's passing. I just visited him just a week before and he told me he had walked 50 steps in the hall with his cane. I told him I was proud and happy with his progress. He said yes "baby steps". He was planning to be home after Christmas. We visited for awhile and he was getting tired so time to leave. I hugged him and he squeezed my hand and said see you soon and bring more of your cookies! Of course! He was a wonderful giving man who helped so many people including my Mom, after my Dad passed away. She lived 2 houses away from Richard and Pauline. I could never thank him enough for all he did. He told me many stories about the farm and his cousin, my Dad! Love and miss you, Ritchie Say hi to Pauline
