Merry Christmas Mom

Good morning mom
I cannot think of Christmas without thinking of you and Bob. You both made Christmas special again and I thank you for that. Even though we are not together with you I carry that special indescribable bit of joy with me. I also carry a tear because I wish I could give you a big hug. You are as you know and always will be my favourite.  You truly are my special and lovable one. Thanks for loving me and making me feel lovable. If we make only one person in the world feel this way, we have lived a beautiful life. Thank you for letting me be a part of your beautiful life, for you are one of the ones who make a number of people feel this way. I love you, my lovable adorable mom!


Merry Christmas
December 2015

Love Rick


I just sent this email to my mom and I thought I would post it here as well, for everyone who misses someone who makes them feel lovable. Also I want to wish all of you who have been so kind to me a Merry Christmas. I wish I had more time to visit with you all, there are times I feel bad that I cannot give the attention I would like to reading your writing. Please know that it is not a lack of interest. Blessings to you all.

For all of you who know Richard I am sure that you know what a caring man he is and how much he cares for the world around him. He is a very special man and I am extremely proud to call him my son. I am sure that he knows that I love him but will say it again many times to always make sure that he knows Love you Richard Mom
