Condolence: Our farewell to a true gentleman. I am the Resurrection and the Life; Whoever believes in Me even if he dies, Will live.🕊 John 11:25

Condolence: My Dad, Leroy Doolittle, LOVED Richard Joseph Wiedl (he always called him)and he always admired Rick's strength and courage & respectfulness as a young student of his. That was long before I/we got to know Rick later on--coaching with my Rick, his really awesome and creative methods of scouting reports, SVS camps (GREAT memories), educator stories shared, his pride in his family-the boys and Susan; firemens' testing (what a task!!!),talking about all the mutual friends we have - will miss him but most of all we will miss his great attitude and SMILE--he ALWAYS showed interest in whatever you had to say - always. Inspirational man - great person--I was counting on that coffee on his deck the first day of school when I don't have to go back - he described that first day of retirement like no one else. God Bless you Rick - your smile lives on in our hearts.

Condolence: To Susan and the entire family, With you, I am feeling a great personal loss with my coach's passing. I never could have guessed that this wonderful man would leave such a lasing impression on my life when he was my coach and teacher. I feel blessed to have had the time and attention of Mr. Wiedl during my years at Foran High. You should all know that his was a life that truly made a difference.

Condolence: Our deepest, heartfelt sympathies for you at this time of loss. Mr. Wiedl taught at Foran HS when my sister, Susan and I were there during the 70’s. He was a strong disciplinarian whom we respected. He was an amazingly dedicated teacher. He was kind enough to attend the class of 1976 Tri-Class 40th Reunion in 2016. He shared military stories with my significant other, Tom Morgan and we will forever remember that last time Tom and I spoke with him at the reunion. In time, may your family find peace in the warm memories of Rick Wield.

Condolence: Such a deep sadness. A truly good human being. Was my biology teacher for junior and senior year of high school. A truly good human being. I have thought of him many times over the years and used him as an example on many occasions as I raised my own 3 children. He was always pushing me harder ... and today I am grateful he did ! Rest in peace 🙏🏻

Condolence: Susan and family: I am deeply saddened to learn of Rick’s passing. Blessings to you at this time.

Condolence: Rich and I were in the J.L.H.S. class of 1964. He was one of the nicest and friendliest boys in our class. We both taught for the Milford Public Schools. I was very sorry to hear of Rich's passing. My deepest condolences to his family... Rest in peace, my friend, Judy Irwin

Condolence: So sorry to hear of Rich's passing. We went to school together, and saw each other at the many JLHS reunions that he attended. He was a nice guy and will be missed.

Condolence: My deepest condolences to Rick's family. He was a great educator, friend, and awesome political debater, even if he was on the "wrong" side. I will definitely miss those spirited exchanges and his comradary. Rest in peace, my friend.
