RICHARD LAMOTTA

I would like to extend my condolences to the family of Richard LaMotta. I read about his death in my local paper, The Express-Times from Easton, PA. My mother's maiden name was LaMotta and her father was Dominic LaMotta, a cousin to Jake LaMotta. It seems that we are related, yet I didn't know of any other relatives in the area. I would love to have one of the family contact me. My name is Roseann Zammatore Affa, my e-mail: [email protected] and phone number 610-258-7077.

I met Richard in 1981. I picked him up at 5 am in Santa Monica to go to our factory for a trial run of Chipwich cookies.
By 8 am we were sitting at Nate and Al's having breakfast.
I considered Richard my brother and visa versa.
We shared our successes and comiiserated in our problems and losses.
We had great times- when he was named Business man of the year- I flew into New York and went to Studio 54 where Mayor Koch gave him the award.
When his son passed away I flew...

Dear Elaine and Family,

We are deeply saddened by this news.
Richard was a mentor to me, his vision, his wisdom and especially his caring spirit is something I will never forget. I worked for Richard for many years. It all started when Chipwich was an "Idea", then was Chipwich a la Cart, Sunborn, Best of the Best and the rest is History.
I owe my "today" to Richard's encouragement and guidance.
The thoughts and prayers of many people are with you at this time of...

I was 3000 miles away in a hotel sleeping when I was awoken with the sad news. Totally surreal. Though I only knew Richard for a short time, we instantly bonded. I could feel his warmth and sincerity. I loved his entrepreneurship and his passion for marketing. I am committed to helping launch his final project (MD system) to the world in honor of his legacy. From what I saw and experienced, Richard LaMotta left this world a better place because of his presence.
May he rest in peace....

Dear Elaine,

I have known and loved Richard for thirty years and I owe Richard everything that I have accomplished in business, as Richard hired me all those years ago; I have been blessed that Richard remained a dear friend all through my life. I am a better person for knowing him so closely.
