Sorry for your loss
Our deepest sympathies for the loss of your Husband, Dad & Grandfather.
We will very much miss seeing him sitting inside the front entrance of the garage watching the traffic go by with one or two of his cute doggies at his feet.
We know he dearly enjoyed all of his precious little dogs keeping him company that he had in the past, (like those cute, little Jack Russell’s that reminded us of the one we had that sadly passed away too) and also, the little black dogs that he had now.
May God Bless and comfort you as only he can do now and in the days ahead.
We are so sorry for your loss. Richard was a fine man and a wonderful neighbor. May the Lord hold you all close and give you comfort.
