Richard meant so much to not only me, my mother, and my sister, by my daughter. She loved him so much. She looked so forward to seeing him. He had done so much for her and I that I wish I had the chance to tell him how much I appreciated everything he has done for us and a final goodbye. You will be very missed by us. We love you always.

I’ve been placing bets with Mr. Kelso for over 10 year, met him when I worked at Steamers. I have kept in touch with him every few months. Last spoke in Sept talking about football, he let me know he was in the hospital but would be okay. Praying for the family. I was praying this wasnt the outcome.
