Rich Flanders RIP

[Ruth Idzik]

Hey everyone,
This is Ruth, Richard's niece from his sister Michelle. It is so nice to read all these kind comments about my uncle. We are truly going to miss him, and he was a hell of a man.
He actually sent all of his parkers to an auction house in California about a week before he passed. The auctions end Sunday just if anyone was ever particularly interested in models he had here are the links

The auction house took hundreds of fabulous photos too if anyone just wants to take a look. He sure had a beautiful collection ❤️

Ruth,
I never met or knew Richard but I would say we had more than one thing in common interest, our love of the outdoors and Parker Shotguns. I met Brian Dudley for the first time today, I handed him a Parker to evaluate for safety prior to use and he immediately recognized it as one of Richard's. I would like to assure both you and Richard that his prized Parker CHE fell into good hands and it will be spending time afield once again. Auction #1017914153
