I was hiking this beautiful crisp fall day and came across Richard´s memorial bench. What a great tribute to someone who was so special and loved.

Dear Dr. and Mrs. O'Brien and Kevin,
I'm a patient of Dr. O'Brien.
I read about the accident and didn't put it together until Dr. O'Brien told me last week.
My deepest sympathies. I wish I was at the Memorial service. I heard it was a beautiful service and that other members of the ski team attended.
Richard was about the same age as my youngest son (who is also a patient of Dr. O'Brien). I told my son about the accident.
You and...

Dear Dr. & Mrs. O'Brien, & Richard, Our heartfelt condolences to your family. Dr. O'Brien, we have never had the pleasure to meet your fine wife and sons, but your anecdotes and family photos inside your office made it feel, in retrospect, that we kept tabs on all of our children growing up! We are truly filled with sorrow, most sincerely, The Garboushian Family,

A song of Donner
Fictitiously by Richard
I know a song of Donnrr
Of the evergreen pine
Of the setting sun reveals itself over its water
Of the memories of my family and friends
And the cabin of laughter and crying within
Of the winters snow
and my name which I sign on her slopes
I know a song of Donner
But does Donner know a song of me?
Will the wind on the lake glide and skip across her as I once did?
As the osprey...

Lisa,
Carol just called me after returning from Mexico and I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. Carol was in tears and sorry she couldn't be with you yesterday. I had heard about the accident and didn't know it was your son. I can't express how sorry I am for you and your family. I believe Richard is with your mom and looking down on your family, so I hope that gives you some peace.
You have been a great and best friend to Carol and our family truely loves you and your family. ...
