Richard was a good friend of mine. I will miss him always. Prayers for the family.
I met Richard years ago when he was at Montgomery County DSS and I was at Lee Co. DSS. Then I left DSS and went to work at the hospital and he transferred to Lee Co. DSS. I hate we didn’t get to work in the same building a the same time! He was a wonderful man and a wonderful Social Worker. Prayers for his family.
I’m so sorry about your son, Mrs Evers. I will be thinking about you and your family. ❤️
