IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Donald Reed
Richard
May 21, 1955 – January 27, 2026
Psalm 18:29
29 For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall.
Donald Reed Richard was an ordained deacon at Refuge Temple Ministries. He was invited to church by his sister Judy in 1983 where he was baptized, received the holy ghost, and dedicated his life to labor in the ministry and win souls for the kingdom of God. He used his story and his work as a vessel to share the grace of Jesus Christ. His story has been a labor of love, all done to the glory of God. He loved his church and his church family, especially Chief Apostle Wendell Archie and Bishop Leonard Wilson, along with a host of special friends including Brother Don McKnight, Brother Leday, and Brother Larry who continued to check in as he became limited in his abilities. We thank each of you for the time spent checking in, the hot meals, and fellowship over the years. A very special thanks to his sister Linda who was with him up until the end.
He wouldn't want you to leave today without inviting you to service, feel free to stop by his church home and make it your own: Refuge Temple Ministries 300 Sprig Street Lake Charles LA, 70615.
