It's New Years Eve day right now and I just found out. A huge shock. Just got off the phone with Pinky, catching up about this terrible development. Richard was one sweet cat, always good as gold to me. Invited me to a some memorable fetes at his place. My M79 bus goes right by his building and always brings up immages of RRB to me.
Huge shock . . .

My darling Richard. Living on in my heart and my music always. What a blessing it was to know and love him.
Devastating. He loved every minute of his life!
My condolences to the family & friends of Richard Bennett. May you find comfort from our Heavenly Father during your time of distress. Ps. 34:17
Cherish every moment of our friendship in New York at musical events...and loved trading singer and song opinions. Often he asked me if I knew a song with a certain phrase in it, and sometimes I was able to come up with it. Everyone loved him and we will continue to think of him whenever we hear his music. Fortunately there is a lot of recorded music...instrumental and vocal and classical.
A sad, sad loss. Aside from his immense musical talent, Richard was such a wonderful human being. I've missed not seeing him at Songbirds events, and now I'll miss him even more.
