Ryszard (Richard) God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be. So He put His arms around you and whispered "come to me." Although I loved you dearly, I could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, and put hardworking hands to rest. God broke my heart to prove to me, He only takes the best. Ryszard rest in peace, you are now free from all your sufferings.
Wieczny Odpoczynek racz Mu dać Panie, a światłość wiekuista niechaj Mu świeci na wieki wieków Panie.

I have known Richard since my childhood days and after many years we met again at Wawel Villa Retirement Home. We became good friends all over again. Our daily banter almost always included our expert opinions and critiques of the Maple Leafs. No one knew their trials and tribulations like Richard.
All the staff at Wawel Villa will miss him and his friendly manner towards us all.
Rest in Peace ...
