A member of the Brookline Senior Center Fitness Center told me that Richard died.
He was a member of the Fitness Center for years. Everyone really enjoyed his company and sociability. He had some great stories about the founding of the State of Israel, his years of living there, and sports. We will all miss him very much.
Condolences to all the family.
