My mother spoke of Richard on many occasions. They were first cousins and very close. They corresponded during the war as letters always kept you in touch with home. The letters my mother received from Richard were given to me after my fathers death in 2010. I contacted the USCG museum curator and made a formal donation of the letters written by Richard to my mother.
