I was so sad to hear of Richy's passing. I went to high school with Richy but lost contact with him. I was so fortunate to find him again on FB, and I was able to visit him from time to time on my trips up north. What a treat his posts on FB were. I could almost smell the coffee and banana bread baking in the oven, and I was alway heart warmed to hear of the deer or bird outside his window. I don't know, I always felt a kind of peace reading his posts! When he moved into the nursing facility, I felt a kinda loss myself for his peaceful home setting, but Richy always made the best of everything, and soon we learning about his new friends and his wonderful caregivers. I know the staff must of really loved Richy and spoiled him; how could you not? Thank you for taking such good care of him. Again we were hearing of the activity outside Richy's window; especially his friends visiting outside due to covid! When I think about how Jesus would return to this world; I think as a HIPPY would be a great example. Richy was filled will Love, Peace, and Compassion; God must be so happy to have you home! The curtain to Richy's window might be finally drawn, but the world outside was so enriched by his presence here on earth.
"GO REST HIGH ON THAT MOUNTAIN,
Son, your work on earth is done.
Go to heaven a-shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son!
