Blessed to have met such an amazing and sweet man. With such an incredible attitude towards life, family, and really everything. Thinking of Susan and all the family in this hard time.

Susan and family, We prayed for Richard's healing from the moment we found out of his illness. God had other plans for him ad took him to rest in heaven. My sister and I are thankful we had the privilege to meet the young man who came to Nicaragua to help the poor. Our lives were enrich by his presence and friendship. May he rest in peace.
Our deepest Condolences are with Susan, children, grandchildren, his siblings and the entire Kolbe family.

We have nice memories of the Kolbes from all of the years we saw you when the Jaglas lived next door.

Susan and Family,
So very sorry for your loss. Your husband sounds like an amazing person. Pancreatic cancer is a very tough disease. Your faith will hold you together. Sending prayers and love.

Vanessa and Family - I’m so deeply sorry for the loss of your dad. I only had the chance to meet him once at one of the girls’ soccer games, but in that short moment it was so clear how proud he was of you and everything you pour into the team. The way he talked about you and the girls truly stuck with me.
I hope you feel surrounded by love and support in the days ahead. Please know you’re in our thoughts, and if there’s anything you need—on or off the field—we’re here for you.
