Not sure what to say?

Sad to hear of Doug´s passing. Spent much time together, performed at his wedding to Beth. And performed at many of events (auto racing) that he had organized. Lost track after my wife and I relocated to Arizona in 2006 But he did visit a few times here in Scottsdale. Rest in Peace my dear friend.

Love and prayers to Douglas Richardson family and friends also God bless you to Douglas Richardson family and friends also I miss my best brother Douglas Richardson forever very much also Rest In Peace. Amen. Your best brother Paul Torres P. S. Paul and Douglas Richardson are best brothers forever very much.

My wife Nancy and I took Doug to Europe in 1976 along with Amy Garver, Jimmy Guggenheim and David Deitz. Bill Koons

Doug lived above me in Tierra Verde. There was not a nicer more interesting man to talk to. He truly was a good man with a good heart. He had an absolute wealth of knowledge about music and when Doug and i started talking it went on a long time and could have gone on longer. I will miss him but happy he is no longer in the physical situation he was here on this earth. In a better place! We'll pick that chat up again!

Doug was first an employee, then became a friend. His love for fast cars, Porsches and Penske Racing was well documented. During his days as Executive Director of the Cleveland 500 Foundation, his creative ideas became a staple for success. Doug continued his efforts in Florida and had success and then endured very tough times in business and health. I spoke to Doug on a regular basis of once a month until his cancer diagnosis, then it became a weekly conversation. Speaking with him...

I remember Doug from the Play House Club as well as your mother and father for maybe almost 20 years. Your whole family was so kind to me while I worked there. I remember they were all so proud of him working at Penske, a name I knew.

Dear Claudia, I am sorry for your brother passing after those challenges that he experienced. I will always give him credit for my investment in Canon photography equipment. Yes I agree he has a kind soul and is loving and generous! Robin B.

Claudia, I am so sorry for your loss. I well remember Doug from school and then later seeing his photos on FB.
