I just found out about Richard's passing. I have known Richard for 40 years. He was a very good friend - a very kind and loving person. I played with Richard on a few occasions - an amazing musician. (I was also his Web Site admin for his NucklJac.com site). Richard was the kind of friend that - even if I hadn't seen him in years - we could pick up right where we left off. He was a very kind, loving and accepting person, and he will be missed!

Will miss the tours of his pottery, helping care for his roof top garden, Talking flowers n gardens , Ripley, ( allergic to cats but it was ok) , all the piano tech talk. His happiness was the best gift regarding the dancing pot! Loved that cyan pot but knew it needed to be...

Family of Richard, I knew your brother and uncle from yoga classes. My condolence to you on his illness and passing. I will be away and not able to attend the memorial. Certainly, with Richard's music background, it will be very beautiful. God Bless, Peace, Robert Rybka

Sorry to hear about Richard. I met him many years ago after buying a piano from Kapp's. Since then, he did regular tunings and piano work for me, and I always enjoyed his visits. He had a great sense of humor, and was a genuinely good person. He will be missed.
