Dear editor:

Mr. (Terry) Richards is one of my favorite teachers from childhood. I greatly respect and appreciate his approach to teaching. My memories are that he was kind often, disciplined in love when necessary, instructed in faith and allowed his love for Jesus to permeate his actions.

He is the definition of a positive role model and man of God. I’m sorry to hear that he is in the hospital. I pray that the Lord’s Will be done, hoping and praying that he will be returned to the classroom in good health soon.

Thank you Mr. Richards for everything you have done for so many.

Steve Willems
