In Memory of Richard Meadows: Support Needed
Donation protected
Hello and thank you so much for taking the time to read this. My family would be so grateful for any help you are able to give. My name is Michelle Krupiczowicz and I am the mother of Richard Alexander Meadows. I am very grief-stricken as I write this and I am beside myself as our family has recently experienced the tragic loss of our beloved son. It was sudden and unexpected and I still can't believe it's real. We don't have all the information yet on what happened to Richard he was found on the floor unresponsive by his fiance Kati. Richard's life wasn't perfect. He had his ups and downs and had been trying to get a handle on his life. He had also been struggling with depression and anxiety for a long while. He had come a long way on his life's journey seeking the help he needed. Kati has been alongside him the last 12 years on this journey. Richard was also very close to his older sister Rachelle who loves him very much and tried to guide and Mentor him. We also lost his younger sister Sarah she was 25 years old to a rare autoimmune disease known as good pastures. It attacks the lungs and the kidneys. Richard was very grief-stricken by the loss of his younger sister and didn't handle it very well. We as a family got through the toughest time and he was able to find his way back to some form of normalcy. My son Richard was also a loving father who loved his children so much. He was a compassionate soul that would help anyone in need. He was a kind-hearted person who was known for his generous spirit and unwavering work ethic. Born on March 3rd 1979 Richard dedicated his life to continuous self-improvement and embraced every opportunity to grow. Richard felt most at home in nature. His favorite pastime was fishing. Fishing was his way of reconnecting with himself it gave him great peace to be out in nature as he found it to be very relaxing. Richard was a deeply spiritual person who was firmly committed to his faith. He was a devoted believer with a profound and abiding faith in God. His spirituality was a guiding force in his life, influencing his actions and relationships. Richard's creativity shone through in all aspects of his life; he had a passion for cooking especially on the grill. He really enjoyed cooking for his friends and loved ones. His fun loving nature and zest for life left a lasting impact on those around him. Richard will be remembered for his warmth, creativity, and joy he brought to his family and friends. In light of this heartbreaking situation, we are seeking funds to help cover the costs of his memorial service. Any support you can provide would be deeply appreciated during this difficult time. Please know that if there is any extra funds after the Memorial it will be given to his children. Richard is an organ donor and is currently at gift of hope. Although he is no longer with us he is still giving. Even though we have experienced this... we hope that Richard can help another family in need. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kind generosity.
Many blessings to you, Michelle Krupiczowicz
