Message: I was very sad to hear of Jeff's passing & also sad thinking of Cindy's passing. I was able to visit with Jeff when he was in Fresno to be with all of us when Jerry passed on. It had been years & years since we had seen each other but when I walked in he knew me right away!!!! Had a great conversation & caught up on our lives.
Thinking of all of you. Your cousin, Linda

I did have the opportunity to see him at my home in Fresno for my brother Jerry's service. The family were all so happy to see him as the man he became.My father Semmie Richardson and his Dad were brothers, both gone and missed everyday by me.His Grandma Sadie doted on her boys and would be so very proud of Jeff.When I was a teenager I would spend 3 week with my uncle D and help him with each new baby he was military and Jean worked.So sorry for your loss :(
