Richard was born on August 20, 1949, in LaGrange, Georgia, and graduated from East Forsyth High School in Kernersville, N.C. On July 18, 1967, he accepted Christ as his personal Saviour. After serving proudly in the United States Navy for ten years and being a Vietnam Veteran, he served faithfully in the local church, pastored three churches, and blessed many people with his beautiful singing voice.
