Not sure what to say?

Richard will always be missed. He was my first mentor in the world of art.

Very sad to read of this special gentleman who was so kind to me when I worked in his Palm Beach gallery. Thank you for the 2 beautiful three dimensional paintings done with brilliant creativity. RIP. Beverly Drady

To a lovely man who was very kind to me. RIP

Richard would have said: "don't ask"

There will never be another Richard! He was my good friend.

I recognize that I am incredibly late in signing this but I only recently heard about Richard's passing. I had the privilege of meeting Richard when I was working at Time Warner Media Sales. Richard wanted to do some advertising for a auction he wanted to have. I went to his home to meet with him and while I was there I was lucky enough to get to see his "work space".

I was sorry to read of Richard's death.
Although I never met Richard, I presently
own three of his original paintings. My father and mother purchased them

Richard was my second cousin, we played as children, but , sorry to say, I haven't seen him in years. My prayers to his family. Barbara Danskin, Anaheim CA
