Not sure what to say?

It´s 2024 now... and yet I will always feel the loss Rich´s friendship and quirkiness. He was one of a kind. Still missing Sue too... always in my heart.

I think about and miss you often Richard.

Me by Richard, taken with an early Sigma Fovon "review loaner."

I miss and think about you nearly every day Richard, and it is clear to me that the world was a happier place with you in it.

I am saddened to hear of Richard's passing and of your loss. As a member of the Gallery for many years (some time ago), I was very fond of him. His support and enthusiasm, level-headedness and gentle nature were valued by all and are fondly remembered by me. His love of photography was inspiring.He was certainly a nice guy, though insofar as I knew him, he was, more importantly, a good man.

To Rich ~ who loved 'Scottish' food and Mallomars, but also raw oysters. There was always the unexpected!

So many memories...
coming with us on our honeymoon, sharing the summer house, camping trips, New Year's eves together....

You are missed, dear friend!

Connie:
Please accept my condolences about Richard's passing.

I just found out last night speaking with Connie.For 30 years Richard has been my champion both professionally and personally, as a good friend. I even had a voice mail from him,it seems the day before he passed. This is a huge loss for his family and friends. R.I.P. special man. You will be missed by many.

We were fraternity brothers in the early '60s. Think of his quiet but self assured manner.

An all around lovely man. The gallery (Soho Photo) will greatly miss him. Condolences to his loving family.
