Not sure what to say?

Met Richard at the Howe High School and Billerica Memorial High School Alumni Reunion for his wife Joann at the Billerica Elks on June 2006. He was wearing the Red Sox World Series ring and let me try it on! He was very gracious! One of my favorite memories!

Dick became a friend when we were together at UMASS in 1956. I remember how proud he was when he got the job with the Red Sox. He was a bright light and will be missed. Deacon Richard Radford

Dick was a distant cousin but always very kind and accommodating in getting me game tickets. I always brought his Dad Louie along; Louie was a client of my Dad`s in Milford. Louie was hard-of-hearing, so when we got to the game he could hear nothing; so I had to do a verbal play-by-play for him during most of the game so he could know what was going on...true story!!! May Dick RIP!!!

My memories of Dick go back to 60's and 70's when I lived in Hopedale- He was always a kind and gentle man- RIP Richard!

We are so sorry, Joanne, to hear of Dick's passing. He was such a fine man and will be greatly missed. We send our sincerest condolences to you and your family.

I lived with Dick in 1967 and 1968 at UMass and there was no one more passionate about UMass athletics than he was. His stories about Earl Lorden and Matt Zunic were priceless and his friendship and guidance was second to none. Terry and I want to extend our deepest sympathy to Joanne and the whole Bresciani family. Dave Katz

I loved working for you and Joanne,,,you were allways so polite and shared a great love for Alice.....All my love. Josie Costello

2005 Boston Red Sox World Series Ring

Joanne, so sorry for your loss! I have a great memory of Dick at the 2006 Billerica Alumni Banquet when he was very gracious in letting me have a photo with the Red Sox World Series - 2005 Ring. I will never forget how wonderful he was! . God Bless!

Our deepest condolences to the Bresciani family. We always enjoyed being in the company of Dick & Joanne at the many baseball functions over the years. He will be very much missed by all who knew him. Ed & Carole DiRamio
