There are things death cannot touch, and your love for Richie is one of them. Sending healing prayers and comforting hugs. I am so sorry for your loss.
A life gone too soon.
Rest in peace cuz. Still remember our last conversation. 💚💛❤️
🍻 Love ya man.
I am still in shock that you are gone. When I ran into you in downtown Fargo in September and got to hug you, I had no idea how much that hug would end up meaning. I am so grateful for that last moment. Thank you for your friendship through the years. I will miss you more than I can put into words. Rest peacefully.
Sorry for your loss
Deb and family – our thoughts and prayers are with you. Terry’s medical condition will prohibit us from attending the service, but please know we are keeping you in our prayers.
