Richard was a hard worker and excellent provider for his family all his life. In his younger days he loved to ride bulls. And after high school started working with his dad in the oil field. He enjoyed welding and working with his hands. He loved his boys and enjoyed going out to their homes to help build things for them. Richard and Nancy first met one another in junior high.
