My condolences to the family. I met Richard in Alaska in 1998 while working at Bear Trail Lodge. I took him and his friend, Dixon to several sites for Sockeye. I enjoyed Richard's sense of humor and his dedication to fly fishing. He was one of our regulars at the lodge and we got to be friends. I always enjoyed it when he and his buddy Ray would show up.
