Richard will always be apart of the most special day of my life- my wedding at Disney. During our morning pictures he was helping me with my dress. He pulled my husband aside, whispered in his ear - I can tell you are going to be so happy. We never forget the power of love that so strongly shown through this man. Disney Magic at its finest

Several times a year my mother and I would go to Walt Disney World. Most of our visits we stayed at the Grand Flordian, we always would stop by to see Richard. His smile and warmth always made us feel special. We talk many times about the old days and family. It was just a pleasure to talk with him. The last time we got to see Richard when we were leaving my mom and I and My sister in law yelled as loud as we could, "Bye Richard" he turned and smile and waved. Yes, Richard we are all...

I worked with Richard outside of the Grand for many years. I miss our conversations. He was a gentle and humble man. He never wanted the I attention on just himself. was kind and often brought treats to share with the cast. Richard will be greatly missed. St. Peter will have some competition. God bless.

I knew Richard in his later years at the Grand Floridian Disney resort. His warm hugs and gentle smile were the best greeting. He was a wonderful and kind man with only positive and loving words to say. He made everyones day better just by being there. He will truly be missed by many. Rest in the peaceful arms of the Lord and enjoy eternity with your own bride who has been patiently waiting.
