Helen Williams (Smith)

I was very sad to hear that Richard had passed away.  We  grew up together.  His family lived across the street from my family.   We played together alot.  He was so much fun!  Richard's name was on my list of classmates to contact regarding the reunion.  I talked with him in October and we had such a nice conversation.  He was looking forward to attending the reunion.  I'm sorry that I did not get to speak with him again.  Love you Richard!  Helen Smith
