BOSSIER CITY, La. -- When you think of a hero, who comes to mind? For the family of Dr. Randy Richter, that answer was obvious. "I'm just really proud of him and I want the world to know," said Melanie Hooper, who nominated her father for the award. After hearing his background, KTBS and its sponsors decided to surprise Dr. Randy Richter and award him the first "Everyday Hero" of 2021. Last week, the announcement was made on Richter's front lawn." When's he's not receiving awards on his front lawn, Richter lives the quiet life in his east Bossier home. He's also battling terminal cancer.
