We are so sorry for your loss of another great Stokes brother. Richard was a fun-loving and caring guy. He loved his family above all else and the sibling closeness was amazing. May each of you find comfort in the good memories of family gatherings and love for each other. I can only imagine Big Betty, Georgell, Fleetwood and Perry welcoming him to his new home. Sending prayers!!

To the family- Richard Stokes was a very fine man. I met him 19 years ago when I moved to Charleston and we had some very good times together. We made many memories and we made each other laugh. I will always love and remember Rick Stokes and hopefully meet with him on the other side.

I owe a lot of my success in life today because of Rick Stokes. When I was just 28 yrs old he gave me the opportunity to come and work at Detyens Shipyards which was a turning point in my life for myself and my family. He has always been an inspiration to me and I will miss him tremendously. May god bless him and his family in these hard times.
