So sorry to hear of your loss Joy. We were on vacation the month of July and did not see or hear of the news till we got back. Richard will be remembered by our family as a joyful, energic wonderful friend. Ron so enjoyed working with Richard at BLM. From the Hergotts - Ron, Laura, Tony, Diane, Gary, & Mary Beth

So sorry to hear about Rick's passing. When I worked in the office at Kunkel's I always enjoyed seeing Rick, he was such a sweet guy (when he wasn't all riled up about the coach buses being out and him not being in one - I'm sure you know what I mean Joy). I think he really enjoyed his job and I certainly appreciated his impeccable paperwork and told him so more than once. I will always have fond memories of Rick.
