I grew up with Richard on Felton Street in West Philadelphia. We were in the same classroom at Our Lady of the Rosary Elementary School and St. Thomas More HS.
Please accept my condolences on your loss. We really lost touch with each other during college. I just discovered his passing. He was a very intelligent person as shown by his NASA career, and a good childhood friend.
