I didn't know Mr. Richards but I wanted to extend my condolences to the family. During times of loss, the scriptures can give comfort to grieving hearts. Please note 1st Corinthians 15:21,22-"For since death came through a man, resurrection of the dead comes through a man. For just as in Adam, all are dying so also in the CHRIST, all will be made alive. "
