Rita Yeasted wrote a sympathy message

“Please accept my sympathy at the death of one of the finest people I ever met. I first knew Richard from his days on the Board at La Roche College (University). We served together on the Search Committee for Msgr. Kerr. I know that La Roche is grateful for his generosity over the years, and I was particularly pleased that he gave an annual award for the best Honors Presentation each Spring. I am sorry I will be out of town on Sunday and Monday,. I will remember all of you at Mass both days. Sr. Rita Yeasted”
