May 5, 1996His body riddled with cancer and knowing he probably had a month to live, Richard celebrates his 34th wedding anniversary with Viola. At the age of 65 1/2 the years had been good to him. He was a handsome man even in this photo. He never changed...it was his downfall and his charm. To the end family was number one, and although we argued and fought like any family, it was fitting that he left this life surrounded by, and holding onto...his family.
