To Barb and your entire family, We wish to send our deepest sympathy on your loss. We met you and Richard on our bus trip last year to New York City. Though our time together was short
we realized what a wonderful couple you were together. We chatted about your Napoleon grandchildren, their sports, and how you enjoyed watching every time they played. May God bless you and keep you in his loving care. Sincerely, Nancy Conrad and Bethany Mathers

Dear Barb and family,
We were so sorry to hear Richard passed away suddenly and you were very sick in the hospital. We didn't know Richard, but from reading his obituary he was very special. May God's loving arms be around all of you now and in the days ahead.

Barb,
I would like to send you my sincerest condolences at the news of Richard's passing. You were good friends and helpers to Mom and Dad when you lived across the street from them in Delta. I always remember the way Richard came to the house the morning Dad called for the ambulance for Mom when she had her aneurysm. Both of you were kind and wonderful neighbors. I know no words can truly take away the pain of your loss but just know we are thinking of you and your family. Connie Hopkins

Barb, We are so sadden by Richies passing so unexpectedly. We just never saw enough of you both but when we did it was such fun. So many years and so many memories. Facebook kept us in touch through pictures. Seeing how our lives changed over the years and how our children grew. Looking at Riches picture I see holidays, and reunions, and meeting in resturants for good conversations and laughs. Richie used to try and help me with math when he was at T.U. and I was in high school. So easy for him but not me. He will be missed by so many. May God comfort you and all your family.
