Dear Sullivans, I also swam at the Y with Richard almost every morning. He had such a cheerful disposition and wonderful sense of humor. He gave us all a lovely start to the day. He shared pictures of his family, especially the great-grand children as they arrived. We will miss him.

Sullivan Family,
So very sorry for your loss. He was a wonderful man who spoke fondly of his family, every day.
I had the pleasure of being in his company for a morning swim for many, many years!
He will be missed.
