The city of Enterprise has lost a pillar of their community.
Former City Councilmember Fleming served the City of Enterprise from 1972-1988. He also did time as a fire and police commissioner.
“Richard was a champion for Enterprise. He was not only a prominent businessman, but he was a family man,” Mayor William E. Cooper said. “He was always so good about helping people in the community. He will be missed by many, but the legacy he leaves behind will remain.”Fleming was known around town as “the candy man” as he handed out sweet treats on Sunday and Wednesdays at First Baptist Church.
“He always, always, always had a bag of candy with him,” Longtime Enterprise Resident Pam McQueen wrote on Facebook, “[He] was surrounded by children of all ages as they eagerly anticipated reaching into that bag and retrieving their piece of candy.”He was an active member of the community and was a part of the Lions Club until his health kept him from going to functions.Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. on October 2, 2022 at First Baptist Church of Enterprise.
