Not sure what to say?

I knew Richard during the early part of my life and he was a good friend and best man at my first wedding...remember going to Providence to see the Springfield Indians play the Providence Reds. He was a good man.

Graduated with "Red" and always thought very highly of him. Enjoyed recent get-togethers with classmates and reminiscing about our high school football team. Great man; will be missed! Just found out today about my friend's passing!!

His absence is felt daily, he was one of the most distinguished men I have known in my lifetime. He was dedicated to his family, his friends and his community. He is deeply missed by my family an myself. Edwin, Laura, Matthew & Lisa-Marie Lockhart

My condolences to the Gagnon family. Red was a true gentleman and a great friend of the WSPD..

I graduated from high school with Richie. He will be missed at our reunions that we have twice a year God Bless.

I worked for Red several years ago and we became good friends. He always shared his good fortune with everybody around him. We would talk hockey for hours on end, and attended many Hartford Whaler games together.

To Sharon, Michael, Scott, and Joyce........your father was your favorite fan, and he's now at peace.

A long time friend and business associate. A truly wonderful man!

Gordie and I knew Red and what a wonderful man he was. He and Gord can now talk hockey in Heaven. My condolences.

Red was not only a very sharp businessman, but he was a kind and humble man as well. I have known him for over 31 years and he was at all times a true gentleman and a caring business associate. We have all lost a true friend to the waste industry - He will be missed by all of us who knew him.
