Richard Freeman Des Jardien

West Point, 1968

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Frank Chapuran on July 9, 2014:

Lorraine,

Carol and I send our heartfelt sympathy. Rich was always one of my fondest memories from the B-2 days at West Point. Then, after graduation, who could ever forget Rich driving non-stop from Washington State to the Ohio wedding of Ken and Sharon Knitt, a feat most of us would never have attempted.....but then, that was Rich! He was always full of life, looking at the bright, funny side of things, and just a super friend to all of us! We were looking forward to seeing him at a future B-2/D-2 reunion. You and the family are in our prayers.
