My condolences.

I worked with Rich during his years at Rye Country Day; went in to see him at Bovis as well in the MetLife Bldg a few years later. Occasionally he would bring in his Super Bowl ring ... but only upon request! Fun. What a wonderful person ... classy, humorous, kind, humble, true ... not too mention a great football talent. Very sorry to learn his last years were challenging. Richard Caster, a gentleman the world appreciated and certainly will miss. I do. My sincere condolences to all...

Prototype for the sure-handed large and speedy receiver, who could line up wide or on the line. Multiple Pro Bowl selections, and one of Joe Namath's favorite receivers. And I agree with many, who assessed that Rich would have been a standout in any era.

Such a great player and a memorable part of the NY Jets. Prayers for the Caster family.

Sincere condolences to the Caster family, so very sorry for your loss. May God be with you all to help as you endure this very difficult time of your loss.

Richard was a standout student and athlete while at Jackson State . While I was his advisor, we were also Friends and Fraternity Brothers. We would always connect when the Jets played the Colts in Baltimore. He was a well liked community and family man.
