    Shawn (and all the Moore family),

    Janet and I would like to express our deepest condolences at this time. Shawn, you and I have been friends since high school, and it’s a relationship I value, much like the friendship I had with your dad. He loved each and every one of you; of that I had no doubt. I spent many years listening to him speak of you, Patrick, Tim and Susan, and it always made him smile. I lost my dad a little over a year and a half ago, so believe me, I know how you feel. But your dad’s in a better place now, as is mine. He had a long, rich, rewarding life, and his gift to all of you are the memories that will always be there. If Janet or I can be of any help at this time, please don’t hesitate to ask. You know we’ll be there. Steve & Janet Richardson
