Richard Shulman

Richie and I first became friends in 1946 when he was 4 and I was 6 and we remained the very best of friends throughout our grade school and high school years I lost contact with him somewhere in the mid 1960's and often times thought to try to reconnect. And today, exactly two years following his passing I made a determined effort to find him .. did not expect these results. If any of his family should see this please contact me at [email protected]

I was very close with Dick during medical school. He was very smart, warm and enthusiastic about everything. My sincere condolences to his family

I had the pleasure of studying with Richard in medical school. Not only was he fun to work with, but he was a brilliant student. I send my condolences.

My deepest condolences to Kristin and family....it was great to have Kristin and Richard join the Bethel community for our group bike rides. Good memories of cycling with Richard, we will miss Richard and Kristin's occasional drop into Bethel Bicycle for a visit. I am so sorry for your loss, Kristin...please stop by when you're in Bethel...

A pleasure to know, Richard was one of a kind. He will be missed by all who knew him. We are pleased to have made his acquaintance. Fond regards to all his family and friends.
Regards.

I raced to Bermuda about six times with Richie, and one memorable December sail from Bermuda to St. Maarten. Richie was a great shipmate, and his wonderful smile is captured in just about every picture. He was a mentor in many ways, and a true friend with perfect advice when I was preparing to undergo heart surgery three years ago. I will miss him. My sincerest condolences to the family.

How we miss Richie in our extended family! It is WEDDINGS that bring him back most vividly --the one hat joined his child and ours, Scott and Ilsa, and the wonderful Jewish custom of both the bride and groom escorted by both joyous parents, the horah and chair dance! Wendy's beautiful wedding and reception in their own "back yard" and Deborah's with Richie still going strong and getting' down despite his first diagnosis! What a man!

I will miss Rich, we liked to have a beer together and talk about our wonderful grandchildren. We told stories about them. I hurt with his loss, and feel the pain with the rest of the family. He was a wonderful person and friend. I'll miss his smile, but I do see it in his grandchildren.

Richie and I became friends while I was working with him on 3 of his boats. At one point I became seriously ill and he got involved and became instrumental in saving my life with his incredible knowledge of medicine and the medical system. I will never forget him and myself and my family will never forget his kindness.
