I was one of Mr.Ephlin's nurses at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Memphis on the Myelosuppression Unit. I was so sad to hear of his passing, but I rejoice in knowing he is at peace with our Lord. My prayers are with Ms. Edna & his friends and family during this difficult time. It was an honor to have cared for him.

I've known Richard since childhood in school and church. He was always kind, and quite the gentleman. Our prayers for the family.

Dear Ephlin Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Ricky's passing. I lost my beautiful mother only 11 days ago. I never realized that he and my mom were the same age. Ricky was so sweet to me. Ms. Edna, I remember checking on him while you were visiting your daughter and her family. He always made me laugh. Even though the days ahead will be difficult, I hope you find comfort in knowing he is no longer suffering. May God bless each and everyone of your during this difficult time and remember, even though we don't understand, God's plan is not our plan, He knows best!!
God Bless

I did not know Richard but my cousin was married to his brother, Jesse. They were a wonderful family. I wish you all to find peace with the Lord, especially in this Holy Week as we remember that Jesus did for us.. Know that Richard is with Jesus at this moment.

Jesse,
I am so sorry to hear about your brother. I will be praying for you and your family. Although it's been a very long time since we've worked together I often think of the Crompton crowd.
