I was real sadden yesterday when I learned that Richard was killed in action last August of 2001. The last time I was in contact with him was way back when we were still living in Japan. I got to know him real well only in the last year that he was there...but in that short time he was a GREAT friend and watched over me like a big brother. Here are more photos that I found of the crazy times we shared. Richard, I hope you are looking down on us with smiles. Thanks for your bravery and your friendship.

Awwww, this is sooo sad!!! I remember hearing about this story when I was still living in SD! Had no idea he was a fellow YoHian!
Karen, please remind us to put him in our Memorium.
I know...I got all choked up when I first found out. Definitely, I'll remind you - Claud.
Marie, do you know if he married or had any kids?
Karen, you can read about it here:

Yeah, go to the Arlington site to read more about it.
When I went last year I just stood there in shock looking at his headstone. Too too sad. Can't believe he's gone. He was such a good person.
