Richard was one of those type of person that you never forget. I worked with him on a few transactions and quickly saw that he was a trusted person. His dedication to his wife and family was real. I remember trading garden veggies with him towards his last year and he had not changed a bit. I wish there were more Richards like him around to fill his spot. Rest in peace Richard!

Just 3 weeks and I already miss the ability to pick up the phone and talk to Richard.He was a straight forward & very decent person to know in everyway. The Stanko family should be very proud of who Richard was as a person. As a father I only know that I saw Richard always putting his family first, right up to the end. Rest in peace Richard, you finally have Mary back now.

To the Stanko family,
So sorry to hear of Rick's passing. I knew Rick from boy scouts at St. John's and from the Republican party. Always a pleasant man to be around and I never heard him say anything negative about anyone. You will be in Linda's and my thoughts and prayers. May he rest in peace.

To the Stanko family,
So sorry for your loss. We first met your Dad when we were watching our granddog, Lucy, over the backyard fence. We told him how great the yard looked. He worked really hard fixing up the property. He was a very nice person. Glad to have met him.
Sincerely,
