Dear Hershey Family, I just want to say how sorry we are for your loss. My son Jacob worked with Richard at the garage at Main Rd. I also knew Richard from community events and he always had a smile when I saw him. Jacob talked about him often and misses him very much. May he rest in peace and my find comfort in your memories of him.
