Where do I start? I´ve known Richie since second grade. We spent many summer days playing wiffle ball in his backyard. Mrs. O would feed us her special tuna fish sandwiches at lunch. We entered the West Jr. High in 1973 two strangers from parochial school and assimilated into that culture quite well. We met many friends from then on. Richie was friendly to everyone and everyone to him. Our exploits at the Lowell Park are the stuff of legend. Our after bball trips to Friendlys with Marco and Pete will always be special in my memories. Richie´s´ Opal car was just him. Driven on that grain alcohol that time was perfect Rich. Golfing and Celtic games won´t be the same. So many memories to many to recall in this space. I´ve missed him over the years now that we " grew up" but it´s going to be hard to imagine a world without him. Rest in peace my friend. Say hi to Pete and Marco for me.
