Richard and I shared a little fun with each other when we came into contact. He would give a nod and say hello Mrs Ferguson and I would nod and say hello Mr Ferguson. We always got strange looks. We were very amused. I will remember our good conversations. May God bless the family.

So sorry for your loss. Richard was a good friend to us. We would get a Christmas card from him every year. We will miss him.

We’ve haven’t seen Richard in a long time and I was so sad to hear of his illness. I remember many Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners at the Ferguson house. I remember that “look” that he would give that Maple mentioned. He was a sweet guy and I know he will be missed. I’m sorry I’m missing the funeral but I’ll be there in spirit. My deepest condolences to the Ferguson family.
