I knew him as Richard. Richard was one of the best furniture restorers we knew in the business. Our clients loved his work and loved him! We will miss him very much. He was loved by our entire staff at Champion. We had many lovely conversations with him over the years and called us to say goodbye to our David and Laura before he passed. God be with you all.
