Hard to believe it's a year today.  I think about you all the time.  When I need someone to talk to, I normaly go outside and pick a star and talk to you.  I'm just glad you are not suffering no more.  Now Mamaw is with Papaw and you.  Please tell them both they are loved and missed very much. Amazing some some of the things I've done that you've been wanting me to do.  1) quit smoking  2)gain weight and 3)try to mend things with dad.  I will talk to you soon
I love you Tush

Hi Tush,
Christmas is only 6 days away and it is getting harder and harder this Christmas with you not being here with us. It wasn't the same when we got Aunt Net's Christmas card yesterday and your name wasn't on it. I started crying. I talked to Aunt Net tonight, and she started talking about you, and I asked her as long as it didn't hurt her, that I need her to put your name on the Christmas cards when she sends them to us (I need that). I miss and love you Tush.
It's gonna be hard on my birthday, you never forgot it. If I called to check on ya'll, the first thing you would do is wish me a Happy Birthday. Or if I stopped by to see you, first thing you would say is Happy Birthday, I'm going to miss that Thursday. I hope you will visit me in my dreams Thursday night.

Hi Richard Well Billy got his first dear with his bow and arrow, he was soooo excited.  He was out there by himself to hear him tell the story was awesome.  You would have been so proud of him, I know you was with him that day, it don't seem real but you are with daddy your mother and brooks and with GOD.  Love you and miss you terribly.

Hi Tush,
As you already know, Billy shot his first Squirrel 8/22/10 with Frank.  8/21/10 I took billy Squirrel hunting and he shot another one.  I got to be the lucky one to clean it.  As soon as I realized it was dead, I got really excited and yell "YES", Billy said "welp" you just scarred them all away and I won't get another one today."  He didn't get mad, he was excited.  We got eaten up with deer ticks, I got them ALOT worse then Billy did.  I just needed to talk to you like I do alot every night.  I miss you and it still seems so unreal that you are no longer here with us.  
Billy is doing good.  He talks about you all the time.
Talk to you soon,
I LOVE YOU
Mary

Jeanetta, My prayers are with you. Richard was an amazing man he cared so much and would do anything he could to help. The masonic world will miss him terribly but i know i will always remember his smile and the look he would give me when i would dance around at lodge. I know this rainbow girl will miss him

Jeanetta,
My Thoughts and Prayers are with you.  I'm Madeleine's Mom and I know if she were here she would miss Richard.  I know she always thought a lot of both of you.  I will keep you in my prayers.

Jeanetta,
I'm so sorry to hear about Richard.  I always thought a lot of him. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Mrs.Simms I'm sorry about the loss of Mr.Simms. I will miss him very much he was one of my favorite customers he just had a special way of making you smile when he came into the store. When someone new had to learn his lottery numbers he would just smile and say here we go again and laugh. Will keep you and you family in my Prayers. Linda From Melton's

I love you Richard I wish I had told you the last time I seen you but you were sleeping.  Will miss you very much.
