I remember Rich as the big guy with the soft heart and wink behind Cheryls back when Vicki got in trouble. He always had soft spot for his girls and he always had a hug and a kind word or thought to tell you. I always thought that he was kind of "John Wayneish" in the way he carried himself and treated all the women in his life. He will be sorely missed. But I know for sure that he is sitting with God and is whispering "I am still here and I love you" to all his loved ones. I send a heart full of love to you vicki, Becky, Cheryl and all. Love Kandi

Vicki, Our Prayers are with you and your family. Tom and I remember your dad and how proud he was of you and his family. Your dad knew many people and touched many hearts. How quickly we can be called from this life to the next. It really is a wake up call. Your dad was only 64 years old with no signs of any bad health. Vicki I know your dad was ready to meet His Lord and Savior and the reality is you and I must be ready. We have no guarantee of life. All of us who know our Lord Jesus will be dancing on streets of gold. I enjoyed talking with you tonight, catching up with each other. Friends you can call after years and just connect like it was yesterday. I am praying for a comfort of peace to be around you during this time of grief. Vicki,Keep on smiling, laughing and singing. You will dance with your father again... We love you, Kathy and Tom Chestnut
