Richard P. Couture

I just learned of Rich’s death. Although we hadn’t done a good job of keeping in touch Rich and I were definitely the best of friends in our high school years. We grew apart after I moved to Oregon but I thought of him many times over the years. Just now I started smiling when I remembered his old Ducati motorcycle, his phenomenal throwing arm from deep center field (under Coach O’Leary), and a great fishing trip we took to Lake Champlain in 1970. My most heartfelt condolences to the family....

I would just like to express my sympathy and say that Rick was a great guy and I'm glad I got a chance to meet him through Safemasters
I wish his wole family well and just wanted to say that he always talked about all of you with great love

Dear Ray, Terese, and family,
I have so many fond and memorable times of Ricky in our high school years - you were like a second family to me then. My deepest condolences to you all. May God comfort you in this time of sorrow. My prayers are with you. Love -

Dear Couture Family,
I was so shocked and sadden by the news of Richard's death. Please accept my deepest sympathy. I will remember all of you in my prayers.

Richard, Chuck Dowd and I were fast friends in Belchertown. We had a great time at our 25th high school reunion and my favorite picture from that event is one of the three of us.

I will miss his dry humor and quiet demeanor.

Dear Ray and Therese...We are so sorry to learn of your tragic loss. We would love to pay our respects but unfortunately we are still in FL. Our thoughts will be with you. God bless.
Norm & Lorraine.
