We remember and honor Richard as a loving son, parent, husband, friend, coworker and community member. Richard played a significant role in so many of our lives. We have created this site to provide caring and concerned friends a place to receive information about ways to help Alexis, Tyler, Lana and Tate Bentsen. This site may be accessed by anyone wanting to contribute assistance.
