Richard "Richie" Conti

Miss you so much, Richie. So you know, I send my wishes to Mary so she will know you are in my heart and on my mind frequently. Happy Birthday old friend.

To Mary and your entire, extended Conti family...it is seven years since Richie and I celebrated our 50th Bergenfield HS graduation reunion; in two days it will be the same time since Richie returned home to our Lord and Savior on 12/25/2016. I just read the Guest Book of comments of Richie's family members, students he taught in class, athletes he coached, and friends from our Mighty Mites family. A common thread was apparent: his smile, his love of coaching, and his support and encouragement of all he encountered (myself included). Mary, know that thoughts of Richie brighten many a day still. Love that guy! Miss you Richie!

To The Conti Family . I am so sad to hear this .Richie lived in back of me in Bergenfield ,he was a great person ,He use to come by my house and talk to my mom, He will be missed , God bless you Richie ,May you rest in peace, Lilyann Harmke Sherman

One of the fondest memories I have of Richie is going to The Paris in Vegas and making as many trips as we could to the buffet :) He'll always be cherished and forever remembered.

Coach Conti was my favorite coach back at Emerson High School. He was my Track & Field Coach back when there was no track. Great memories or a great guy. He will be missed. Bob Hall Jr. -Class of 1973

Sleep in peace Uncle Richie! Your sense of humor was one in a million and I am glad we shared the same type of road rage, when driving! :) thank you for everything!

Mr. Conti was dynamic, inspiring, fun, smart, and supportive, I feel so fortunate that he was my teacher. Wishing peace to his family.

RIP coach. You will be missed. My condolences to his family and to all who knew coach. He is in cavo heaven

Mrs. Conti and family, So sorry for your loss. Coach meant so much to so many of us. I'm sure if you added all the life lessons he taught so many of us, it would go to the moon and back. I'll miss his big smile and wonderful sense of humor that always made us laugh. Love, Bill

We are so so sorry. All our love, strength, and prayers to the Conti family.

The Mastropolo's ...Sal, Patti, Gia, and John

Our deepest sympathy to you, Mary, and the entire, extended Conti family. Though I cannot be with you, please know that I'm thinking of you fondly. I am so grateful that he was in seemingly good health to attend our 50th BHS reunion. Richie and I had a terrific weekend reminiscing high school memories but even more so our summer as Pony League Pirates with Coach Nick Hart. These all are forever in my heart. Rest in Peace, Richie. Love you, my friend.

Our most sincere condolences to the entire Conti family. It was a pleasure to have known Rich. Rest In Peace

Uncle Richie, you are loved and missed terribly. Thank you for being a great uncle and godfather. We love you, Uncle Buttcracker.

Our love and prayers to your family. Love Vicki and Joe DellaTorre
