Hello Julya,
Vinita and I are very sorry to hear about Richard passing away. I have many fond memories of working with Richard at Cummins, visiting your house for dinner and you and Richard stopping by our place in Minneapolis, during your travels. Here are a couple of photos of us in UK on a Cummins project back in Oct '97. One of them has the store in the background where he bought a crystal bowl for you.
Regards,

My Deepest Sympathy to the Hopkins Family.. I was lucky to have had the opportunity to have worked with Richard for many years at Lamb... I remember back to the 60's and 70's the long hours and dedication.. Sadly, we have lost another of the Lamb Family.. My prayers to Julya ...I hope your family will stay strong during this difficult time.

Richard was a great neighbor and friend. We will miss the hot summer night, back deck get togethers. May your kind, sweet soul rest in peace.
So sorry that you guys are going through this. I won't be able to attend but will be thinking of you. There was a little time in my life that Richard and Julya provided a roof for me. I was 17 and wish I would have said how thankful and appreciative I was for that time period in my life.
