Prayers sent to the entire family. I have known Doris for years and all I can say is, she has been like a second mother to me. My mom told her she was to look out after me when I was in West Plains and my mom said she would look after me while in Winona. My heart aches for this family. For the times that I have been around Richard, he was a pleasant person to be around. I remember buying an old huge gigantic tv that I needed help unloading and Doris sent him over. It took Richard, my Dad and I to unload it. Barely got to watch one tv show and the picture slowly faded away. When I would turn it on, 2 seconds later it would shut off. Dad told me to never call him if I was to buy another heavy tv set like that again. But Richard seemed glad that he could help. He will be missed by many. Prayers of comfort for the family in the days ahead. My heart is and may God also be with you all…
