Joining his parents in Heaven he was born to Juan and Juanita Ayala on July 29, 1959, in Wichita Falls, Tx.
Richard is survived by his siblings (in order) Brother Felix Ayala and Wife, Rebecca Ayala, Sister, Viola Trillo, Brother, John Ayala and Wife Elda and their baby sister, Tina Ayala.
While he did not have a spouse or children, he is also survived by his favorite niece, Angelica Zelaya and husband, Jose, his two dogs Blue and Yogi and his best friend Kristy Hart. Richard had lots and lots of nieces and nephews, too many to count.
Richard was a devoted Christian, brother, uncle and friend as he loved helping anyone in need and without hesitation. Sunday mornings you could find Richard and Kristy heading to and from church in his white ford “White Thunder”, a truck that he loved dearly and kept him a hard-working man. Any other day you’d find him in white thunder delivering furniture, mowing lawns and visiting loved ones.
Richard is being very missed and will always be remembered by his contagious smile.
