Never let the fear of failing keep you from trying until you conquer🖤
Life story
Richard was a living, outgoing family oriented kid. He loved to fix things and do outdoor activities such as fishing, riding ATV sports, swimming and much more. He lived a short life, he left us at 14. In his 14 years he accomplished so many things that’s the normal adult doesn’t even accomplish. He never had the “I can’t” mindset. If there was something he was interested in doing or fixing he would try until he succeeded!
