My cousin Richard was a light-hearted,comical,always making you smile type of person. He loved family, which included his church family. He took his position as Chairman Deacon very seriously. A wonderful bus driver as well. To know him was to love him. I'm deeply saddened by his passing. I will miss our daily texts 😢 I pray that God gives Diane,the kids,and the rest of our family comfort and peace of mind during this very sorrowful time. He will truly be missed. His storm is over now.
