I am sooo very sorry to hear of Rick’s passing. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all.
I met Richard at some meetings and trainings at Zep, over the years, & spoke with him on the phone several times, as I am from San Antonio. He was such a nice guy to talk to and helped me learn some things. I’m so sorry to hear of his passing, may God Bless your Family in this time of loss and sorrow. He will be missed.
So sorry to learn about Rick.
Please know that your family are in our thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.
With deepest sympathy,
Pete & Erin Cuffaro
SO SORRY TO HEAR OF YOUR SONS PASSING, ROSE PRAYERS FOR YOUR FAMILY. SHARON THOMANN RUSSELL
Such a wonderful soul, Richard has changed many lives, and will be missed by many, he was a blessing to his family, friends, and mankind, I pray for healing for all who loved him, and know in my heart he is in heaven.
Wave, I am so sorry for your and your families loss. I didn’t know Richard but sharing in the spiritual realm as we did at times I can imagine him to be a very special person. Please know that you, Chloe and your family are in my prayers.
Wave and Chloe and all the Humways… I send my deepest condolences. This a great loss. Richard was a fine guy and he helped me and many others along the way. When he spoke of his wife and his daughter, it was like he was on fire.
Dear Rose and family,
On my first job, I had the privilege of working with you in the County Clerk’s office. Your children were small at the time and I remember how you fondly spoke of them so often. I did not know Rick personally but I know how proud you were as his mother. It is so hard to lose a loved one at such a young age. You and his family will be in my thoughts and prayers. Always keep the faith, it will take you far! Love to you and the family.
Love and strength to Wave, Chloe, and the Humway family. Richard walked the walk and along the way, he paused to help others do the same.
Love you Richard and Family. Thank you friend and predecessor. Yours is the first face i remember. Please help Russ keep the door open and the light on.
