Jan, Rich Jr., Sarah, and the entire Lavelle family:
Karen and I share our deepest heart-felt condolences for the sudden loss of Richie.
I am totally numb, as Richie [and Jan], having just returned from vacationing in Florida, was so tan and vibrant......I am without words over this sadness; as we had just recently shared a great conversation while I was awaiting my appointment and Jan was having a medical procedure.
Albeit with great sadness of loss, we can all find comfort in that Richard now joins his mother, father, family members, and friends rejoicing in the loving bosom of our Lord.
Hopefully, in time, the pain, grief, and emptiness of Richard's untimely passing will diminish; while, through our fond memories of him, his immortality shall endure time.
With love and sadness,
Tommy Noble
