Richard was beyond a principal to my mother. Their friendship developed and both of my parents enjoyed Sunday dinners at Pinas with Rich and the "Mifflin crew".

I was a teacher at Mifflin. Richard was one of my favorite principals.I have great stories from Mr.Slusarki. All he wanted from me was for my mom to bake him a sweet potato pie at Christmas. He was an excellent administrator and very supportive. He will be missed.

I walked Richard´s dog Milo for over a year. Richard was a kind and caring man that loved his dog Milo. He will be missed. I enjoyed our daily conversations.
