I was very sorry to hear of your passing. I met you when you were a freshman at Holy Cross High School and found you to be a true and honest young man. I was a senior with your brother Billy, who was a great athlete at Holy Cross. My memory of you was when I asked you if you would escort a young girl from Incarnate Word HS to my sister's debut and you said yes without hesitation. Later as we grew older I remember you at the Sheriff Department as a loyal and trustworthy Deputy, and a good friend always telling stories of our days at the best High School in San Antonio. You will be missed.

My sincere condolences to officer Talamantez's Family...I accidentally stumble on his obituary..but it saddens me. MY children would always speak highly of Officer Talamantez from Legacy MS....AND enjoyed him as a Dj at their school dances. Thank you to his family for sharing him with our children at Legacy MS.

so so sad to hear of the passing of one of my Holy Cross Brothers, class of 75. of all the alumni of 75, Richard was the only one I repeatedly ran into every now and then, while he was on patrol or just shopping at HEB or then Handy Andy and also ran into him often when he worked for code compliance. will surely be missed. super guy, super friend. My condolences to Talamantez family
