    We were saddened to hear the news of your stroke but heartened to hear of a prognosis of full recovery. Hard to believe, but Karen and I have known you for just over 50 years, going back to college days and early married years in England. We know you Richard to be a warm and engaging minister, and we are thankful to be counted among your many friends around the world who will pray for you, joining your family. Our love and prayers
    Greg and Karen

  4. We’re praying for you. You served us hamburgers, corn on the cob and BEER in Jerusalem in 1972 while we were there as part of the “Dig”. Take it one day at a time.

  8. Get well soon friend. You’ve been a faithful servant with kind words to many people for many years. Praying that the Holy Spirit strengthens you as you heal.

  9. Get well old friend–our prayers are with you–my first week at AC and feeling a bit homesick you reminded me so much of my cousin–you struck me as the most friendly guy there. How God has used your gift of humor and enthusiasm over the years from mission trips across India and Africa to the years on the Big Dig to the inner cities of America–you’ve made a difference–and don’t forget “God save the Queen!”

  10. Richard – you have been a faithful servant and a kind heart for a very long time (not that this makes you OLD of course!). May God bless your recovery. Best wishes to you and Joyce.

  11. Our prayers are with you Richard for a full recovery. You have shown kindness to so many of us over the years, and may God bless you and Joyce.

  12. Dear Richard and Joyce: Barb and I are remembering you during this season. What a remarkable example of love to each other and those who you have served you have been…and no doubt will continue to be. Love to you and your wonderful family!

  13. Will never forget the 1983 Feast in Israel: your presence there with your wealth of information regarding the archaeological activity going on at the time, and your knowledge of the history and background of Israel so greatly enriched our experience. Will be praying for your full recovery.

  14. Richard, You have been a wonderful servant of God and have taught so many so much. Much love to you my friend! May God bless you and Joyce in your recovery.

  15. Mr. Frankel & Joyce
    Prayers are with you and the family. Will let others know as well. I can never thank you enough for all you did for us in the past.

  16. Praying for your complete recovery. Fond memories of you and the entire family. – Brian and Shelby

  17. Prayers and best wishes Richard for a full recovery. I well remember you at the feasts in Jordan and Israel back in the ’80s. You seemed to have endless energy and enthusiasm back then. May our loving Father wrap his healing arms around you and restore your health. Kind regards to your dear wife also.

  18. Hey Richard & Joyce, you’ve always had and exemplified the Big Picture: Love God, Love One Another, Love All People. Thanks for being a giver and encourager. Bless you and yours. Lloyd and Marcia.
