Melanie Murdoch - Ounanian
I wish I could be there for you as you were for me when my father past. I send my deepest symphathies and prayers for your loss.
I have always appreciated the words written by Emerson...about half way through his TO SUCCEED poem he says these words;
...to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived -- this is, to have succeeded.
Many lives breathed easier because of him. Richard was always loved and will always be remembered by our family!
