My very deepest sympathy to the Richardson family. Your Dad was my boss for many years at Kodak and your Uncle Don a coworker. How I remember the stories about you girls growing up and I remember meeting your Mom at various events. May all the wonderful memories bring some comfort at this very difficult time. My heart and prayers are with you all.
Most Sincerely, Judith Ann Ruf
