I remember Richie and our friendly conversations well. We often visited at his amateur radio station. It wasn't until many years later, but I did become a radio amateur myself. Perhaps it was Richie who planted the seed for that interest to grow many years later. I remember him well!

My condolences for your loss. I just happened across this listing now while browsing online. I'm a neighbor from many years ago (perhaps around 1960 or so) and still remember Richie and his amateur radio gear! I lived behind Richie and his family when I lived at 3 Marcus Rd. I always enjoyed our friendly conversations. Regards, Jim Williams
