So very sad to learn of Richard’s passing. My mother Elinor was his first cousin and 3 years older. Elinor passed 20 years ago. As only child Richard and my mother had a special bond. I remember him as described in the obituary. A joyful loving and very funny person. Condolences to Peggy Meg and Gabby especially during the holidays. Take good care.
Meg, my mother and I wish to offer our heartfelt condolences to you, your family, and your loved ones at this difficult time, and may your father’s soul be at peace with our Heavenly Father, as we pray for your peace and comfort, too. May God Almighty bless the loving memory of Mr. Richard Childers, for we pray for the Lord to give you comfort in your time of bereavement.
