I retired from the U.S. Air Force with 22-years service. During my service, I witnessed countless acts of kindness extended to others in times of crisis by the airmen with whom I served. These selfless acts were, to my knowledge, never given as a savings deposit for some future personal calamity; instead, people came forth from every level with helping hands and resources. When I returned to civilian life I observed the phenomena again; never anticipating a personal need for someone as close as my immediate family. And yet, reflecting upon how I came to America, people bestowing kindness should not have been a surprise to me. I won’t go into all that, but I do want you to know what a few of the good guys are doing in their “spare” time to make a difference in Richard and Lisa’s lives... It is extremely noteworthy to recognize the countless federal employees who altruistically donated their personal, annual leave time to Lisa, and the magnanimous contribution by Christina Cabanillas and Tom Bevel for Lisa’s care.
The first of last March a two-day, accredited seminar entitled “Tracking the Money” was conducted at the Oklahoma City Police Training Center as a fund raiser. It was attended by 52 students. For the most part, those responsible for putting it together was Major Ed Hill, Sergeant Wade Taylor from Oklahoma City Police who did a lot of the leg work. CJ Murphy with the Oklahoma Attorney General’s Office and Larry Andrews helped get the word out. We would be remise not to mention Butch Milan who arranged for Jim Holland to assist with the training. Butch paid Jim's air and lodging to get him here, and the rest was all up to the instructors who donated their time. All proceeds for the benefit of Richard and Lisa. Richard and Lisa received a check in the amount of $6,000.00. Major Hill said, “We knew there was a need and wanted to help. I am so glad it all finally came together.
The Oklahoma State Attorney General Drew Edmondson welcomed the attendees. (Mr. Edmondson had previously hired Richard and he also selected Lisa to lead his State Multi-County Grand Jury Unit.)
