Richard A. Mindell

I was fortunate to meet Richard while he was a guest teacher at Browns River. I loved talking with him about family, life, and playing football :). It was great to see the pictures posted here. Certainly a life well lived and a incredible spirit. While I am sure it was too short, I hope you find comfort in your memories. Thank you for sharing him with us at BRMS.

So sorry to hear of Richard's passing. Always enjoyed chatting with him and the books of his I read. Know that our daughter enjoyed him as a landlord too! Our condolences on your loss - he and you will all be in our thoughts and prayers!

We are saddened to learn of Richard's passing. He was always an upbeat guy to have around. He taught me how to build cabinets better and always had useful things to say.

So sorry to hear about Richard. My condolences to his family and friends. We knew Richard through the beautiful carpentry work he did in our home where he was able to make our vision a reality. He was kind, gentle, smart, honest and talented. He will be missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. It was always inspiring to see his friendly face and connect with him at BRMS. He always showed such a sunny outlook and made such a positive impact on the students and staff. He will be missed by all.

My thoughts go out to the Mindell Family. It was very apparent that Richard had a passion for teaching and continued to do what he loved through subbing at BRMS and other schools.
