I used to play Halo with Richie around 2007-2008, we lost touch and I decided to Google his name and I found this obituary. I am extremely saddened to see he passed away, I remember us having debates about the Packers (my team) and his favorite team. My condolences to his family. To Richie, I am so sorry that I didn't reach out sooner.
