Richard will be truly missed. He was a true friend to me and many others who saw that he was always willing to go out of his way to help someone in need. I was truly honored to help out with an eulogy to my friend. Thanks Margaret.

I'll miss his company on Tuesday night pool leagues among the other times we shared. My prayers are with Margaret, David and Tracy during this difficult time. Margaret and David, give me a call when I can help.

I am so saddened to hear of this loss. Richard was indeed a fine gentlemen and he used to play on my APA pool team; he was always happy, fun loving and a joy to be around. He will be missed dearly.

Words can't express our sympathy for the loss of this fine man. To share a favorite moment and offer insight into Richard's character, here's one of our fondest memories. We were playing Richard's APA team at Sharky's one freezing night years ago. Marguerite's 80+ year-old mother called to say her heat went out. That's when we found out Richard had experience in this field. We left the pool match, went to her mother's, and Richard fixed the heat that night, free of charge! Richard, you will truly be missed by us and your entire APA poolplaying family!
