Richard always loved a good football game, but what he loved more then that was to watch his kids play football through the years.  Even coaching a few of our little league teams.  He was a man with a massive heart and even a bigger personality.  There was never a dull moment when he was around he always had a smile on his face.  He will forever be remembered for his big grin and big hugs.  We love you forever and always Dad, Brother, Uncle and friend.
