You will be missed forever and always Tio Richie! The beautiful moments you shared with us will always speak of the great person/ Uncle that you were. Rest in peace up in heaven. You are at peace.

"Those we love do not leave us; they walk alongside us everyday unseen, unheard, but always near."

After having already survived a stroke, and the loss of his lovely wife (my aunt) 2 years ago in September 2021, my uncle Richard Badea (Tio Richie) unexpectedly passed away from a massive stroke on Oct 4, 2023.. Leaving behind his sisters, nieces, nephews and brother- in- law.

The family is understandably shocked by this loss and unfortunately not prepared for all that goes a long with planning a funeral/cremation at this time.

If you knew Tio Richie (Richard), you know that he made an amazing husband, uncle, co-worker, friend and church member anyone could ask for. We are sadden to loose him.

Tio Richie (Richard) was always looking for different ways to give back to his community and has helped many of us in our time of need. It’s now our turn to help Tio Richie(Richard)/ our family, as we deal with the cost.

We are raising $5000 to cover the cost of the funeral/cremation and service.

Tio Richie (Richard), had mentioned wanting to be cremated and placed next to his wife which was so important to him. She was also was cremated. Due to the lack of planning put in place, we have been unable to complete his wish. We want a chance to honor it.

We are overwhelmed by the support shown so far and can’t thank you all enough for helping our family during this time. Thank you!
