Not sure what to say?

Dear Lynn & Family,
I was greatly saddened to hear of Richard's passing and had to relay my deepest condolences, even at this late date. I hadn't spoken to Richard for quite some time but remember him as truly one of the stand-up guys in the industry. As someone close in age to Richard with a family of my own, it hits particularly close to home. May God keep you and your children in the palm of his hand.

Dear Lynn and Family,

Having spoken to Richard only a couple of weeks ago I was deeply shocked to learn of this tragic news.

Please accept my deepest condolances of your sad loss.

Based in London I worked closely with Richard over the past couple of years.

Richard was a great person to work with and a man of the highest integrity.

I will always remember his great sense of humour.

Lynn and family,

I am terribly sorry and deeply saddened to hear of Richard's passing. He was a great guy and will be missed be all who knew him.

My family will keep Richard and your family in our prayers.

Lynn & family,
My deepest sympathies go to you and your family.
Richard was such a special person. I am deeply saddened. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love,
Michele McCurdy

Lynn,

My family and I are profoundly saddened by Richard's passing. He was one of the finest examples of a man that I ever knew. He was dedicated in a selfless way to you, the children, his family and his work in a way that was peerless and second to none. I know that I am a better person for having known him. I only wish that I would have had more time to spend with you and Richard.

I can't pretend know how hard this is for you and your family. All we can say is...

Dear Lynn and Family,

We are so very sorry for your loss. While I only knew Richard for a few years, since working with him at Global Crossing, I was immediately taken by his sincere and professional approach to business, as well as his demonstrated priorities in life. It was very clear, you and the children were his number one priority and how much he deeply loved you all. If there is anything we can do for you, please do not hesitate to let us know.

Our Deepest...

Dear Lynn & Family,
You are in our prayers and have our deepest sympathy for the passing of Richard. All of my memories of Richard are fond and full of happiness. He will be deeply missed, but the time we had with him should be celebrated. Richard had a positive impact on my life and I will always remember him as a caring, hard working, and honest friend, father and husband.
God Bless,
Mark D. O'Neill and Family
