My Uncle Richard was a great man he was always doing things for me one time my dog was sick and he gave it a shot and help it live just for a couple of days I just wanted to share that memory"Rest In Peace"
Richard, my dear and last brother on this earth. I'm sadden by your sudden and unexpected departure. I know that you're in God's Hands. You fought the good fight and completed your purpose on this side. I can remember our days of growing up and was taught to always be true, to look out for each other, and most of all to LOVE each other. We carried this throughout our lives and followed through. I know that you and our other brothers Lloyd (June), Joseph (Wolf), and Donald (Boo Boo) are back together. My Brother I know that you left of unexpected but not unprepared! We were taught how to have eternal life. Therefore we have the comfort of knowing where you are. Your wife Chandra and the kids are ok. Brothers forever and beyond. Love You.

I saddened when hearing about another of Gods angels being called home. Since being introduced to the WONDERFUL FAMILY I have NEVER met one of them who wasn't ALWAYS a person you knew LOVED LIFE & FAMILY. That tells me a great deal about the parents who raised ALL these beautiful children of GOD. Wanda paraded into my LIFE JOURNEY and brought along her entire family so I Love you all dearly and want you to continue to be STRONG TOGETHER. You have the WORD, your faith, your family and friends to lean on in times like this.... so utilize them ALL!!! Love you Julia Faye Harris Williams aka Boss Lady Cedar Hill Texas
