It happened about 1980 or so, Richard and I bought a car together. He didn’t let me drive, so I poured sugar in the tank. I moved out of town on business, shortly after and never saw him again. Yesterday morning I looked on Facebook and was surprised to see his Facebook profile, February 2025. I immediately recognized him by the birthmark on his lip! I immediately put in a friend request. I looked up his name on the internet and saw his obituary!!! I undid the friend request. My deepest sympathy goes to the family. RIP, Richard, your job is done!
Sincerely,
Vivian Ray.
