RICHARD R. COLOSIMO

Rick was one of my father Ray's best friends. Rick would do technical drawings (homework) for my dad when they were in college. They met often and he was like an uncle to us. We knew him as an artist with soft spoken wisdom and an optimistic twinkle in his eye. I am glad he stayed close to my dad their whole life.

He was a kind and generous man who shared his love with his family and friends. He was always positive and his soft spoken voice was a reflection of a man everyone admired. Still sadly missed!

We were saddened to learn of the death of our brother-in-law/uncle. He was warm, kind, and funny. Most of my (Mary) memories of Uncle Rick are from my childhood, and definitely include Gramma Colosimo! RIP.

My Condolences to the family and friends.

Richard was a kind and generous man who always put everyone else first. He made you feel at ease and was a great person to talk to about anything. We'll miss you cousin RIP!

Mr. Colosimo was always a class act. I went to school with Glen and was always made welcome in their home on List Lane. God bless you Mr. C, and thanks.

I'm sad to hear about my cousin Richard's passing. He was a good man. Although I didn't see you often, Richard, it was always a pleasure when I did!

Our kids went to Incarnate Word Academy with his sons. One time he visited the nuns at holiday time and they were eating hot dogs. He always made sure after that that they had a proper holiday meal.
He was a devoted son. His mother lived with them. She cooked some of his...
