Richard was such a fun guy, always positive and always joking. While I haven't worked with him since I transferred with Sears to Chicago, I thought of him with a big smile! I am very sorry for your loss - he was such a pleasure!

I worked with Richard at Sears in Alhambra and then the L.A. Datacenter. Richard had a great sense of humor. I'll never forget the time he drove 30 miles out of his way to pick me up and take me to the company Christmas party when I broke my leg.
