Yesterday
I have known Richard since he was a little guy, he made his 1st Holy Communion with my son Phillip Martinez. He has always been a sweet and friendly person, he always said hello to me when ever I would see him. I am truly saddened by his sudden passing, my heart goes out to his dad, mom and siblings. God bless you all and you will be in our thoughts and prayers
Your son

Yesterday
There is a story that Will Rogers once said "I've never met a man that I didn't like". Well Richard was the living definition of that quote! And the sentiment is true, how people felt about him. I can honestly say, that there is no person alive that didn't, immediately feel blessed to have met him, and made to feel like they were one of his best friends.
I witnessed how he loved his children, and always showed how proud he was to be their "daddy"!
I know that he is now an angel, sitting next to our Lord, and watching over his family, which includes anyone who ever knew him.
The world just lost a truly special man, but heaven gained one!
Rest in peace, you beautiful man!
