It was my pleasure to know Richard and call him a friend for the last 20+ years. He was an important part of my life as he and his family, led by his parents, Lillian and Ture, were part of a group of families that planted the Busti Church of God in 1937. As the Pastor of that church for nearly 21 years, that legacy is so important, not only to the members of our church, but to the Kingdom of God as a whole.
As our paths crossed over the years, without exception, I always felt his genuine concern, support, and love as a Christian brother. His warm smile and gentle demeanor are traits that I will never forget.
Though I will not be able to attend Richard's funeral, due to being in Indiana for my daughter's college graduation, my prayers are with each of you as you celebrate a life that endeavored to honor God in every way.
Blessings to all of you,
Roy Ferguson
