In Memory of Richard Meadows: Support Needed

Hello and thank you so much for taking the time to read this. My family would be so 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 am beside myself as our family has recently experienced the tragic loss of our beloved son. It was very 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 but he was found on the floor unresponsive by his fiance Kati.

Richard's life wasn't perfect. He has had his ups and downs and ĥad 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 loved him very much and tried to guide and mentor him. He has unfortunately lost his battle to mental illness and addiction. As you can imagine we are all broken-hearted. I am doubly broken hearted as this is the second child that I have lost. My beloved Sarah Rose (25) passed away from a rare autoimmune disease known as Goodpasture syndrome, also known as anti–glomerular basement membrane disease. Sarah Rose's tragic death weighed heavily on Richard's mind; he was never able to make a comeback after losing his beloved sister. This contributed to his mental anguish and depression which led him to making an unwise decision which then ultimately led to his untimely death.

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. He was a deeply spiritual person who was firmly committed to his faith. Richard 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 and loved experimenting in the kitchen. 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 blessing to you,

Michelle Krupiczowicz
