remembering Richard after all these years with a tear and a smile. To my brother John and I he was family. I loved him like a second brother. I will always remember him and all the joy he brought to my life. 14 years later he is missed as much as the 1st day we lost him.

I was at Richard's every Friday evening to get my hair done when I lived in Stone Mountain. We had such fun catching up on everyone we knew,and laughing at ourselves, and I am saddened to hear about my friends death.

I was very saddened to read about Richard in the orbit. I did not know he was ill. He was my hairdress, confidant and most of all, my friend for over 20 years. Some years ago, I moved too far for him to do my hair and had lost touch, but never forgot what a wonderful person he was. I have beautiful memories of him. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. I feel like I know all of you from Richard speaking loving of you over the years and did meet his mom once at his house.
God bless.

I really don't know how to express my feelings of loss. I have known Richard for some 20 years (more?), and I can't believe my dear friend is gone. I treasure having known him. My gratitude for everything he did for me is beyond saying. I hope the Yansicks, his parents, can have some comfort in knowing their loss is shared, I'm sure, by many.

Richard has always been a wonderful friend to my friend, Gary Klingensmith, and to me and I feel very sad that he is gone. I will forever be grateful to Richard for helping us on the day Gary's partner, Jerry, died. Richard was always there to help and will be missed greatly by us. I'm glad our paths crossed in life. My condolences to all the Yansick family.
