Mary, My heart goes out to you and your family over the loss of Richard. He was a wonderful person and a great man. Things will seem mechanical for you for awhile, but there is a tiny bit of comfort down the road. I will keep you in my prayers and if there is anything I can do (including just being a good listener) please don't hesitate to call me. 513-265-0041

I am truly sorry for the loss to the Acuff family. I worked for Rich Acuff while he was at FCI Ashland and he was a very dedicated and fine gentleman to work for. My prayers are with you all.
