He has been on my mind lately. I was thinking how great he was, and his family, to my daughter and me while I lived in Virginia. I will never forget that or his antics! My best to his family.

I will have fond memories of Richard having lunch with the guys at Italian Kitchen West (oh the stories). We will miss seeing him in his dapper hat and I know he is now catching the Big Fish! Peace be to you and yours.
