Card of Tfian^s
A sincere thanks for your care dur-
ing our time of sorrow. Your floral
expressions, food, visits, memorials,
cards and prayers.
We loved this man and thank God
for the 81 years he enjoyed in Red
River County. He seldom met a per-
son he didn’t enjoy a friendship with.
He died suddenly after a short
illness...but was still hunting wild
hogs and going on overnight fishing
trips, playing "42" and meeting new
people.
Thanks again for your expressions
of sympathy, but also thanks for be-
ing his friend in life. You helped him
have a full and beautiful life.
The Clifford Ritchie Family
Ma Dot, Shirley, Cathy
And Their Families
