Not sure what to say?

There's hardly a day goes by that I don't think of you. You are greatly missed, D.R.

Oh, DR, what great times, great parties, great memories. You were a total joy to so many and will be so very missed. Love and Toodles to you!

My time working with DR is irreplaceable and was a privilege. He was a lighting guru and taught me well. Rock on DR to that Harley in the sky.

Going to miss my Cousins Doug and my good e-mail buddy

So very many great times and memories with DR I just don't where to start. DR taught me how to soup my first roll of 35mm film, got me involved playing Rugby with Scioto Valley RFC and always could brighten any day with his wonderful smile and laughter.

DEAR DR, I loved you. All the talent, all the craziness, all the joy of life you brought to everyone and including me. The poodle roasts, the love of poodles "big ones" and the images you created are always in my memories. XXOO

Very sad loss of my photography mentor & friend.
Some of my greatest DR memories:
-Traveling the country shooting for The Limited.
-Stopping over in Chicago for a "Blues Fix".
-A fashion shoot in St. Kitts with Bergitt and her monkey.
So many great experiences!
Cheers,
Bbarr
