Condolences Judith and Richards extended family. Richard was famous in the Southern Meat industry for his unwavering authority administering food safety, you listened and acted when Richard gave you advice, challenge him at your peril as he didn't believe in taking prisoners. Rest in peace Richard.

Thoughts are with you Judith
