I remember going to Richards house for a barbeque when we lived there and what a fun host he was. He was a really nice guy and Im so sorry for your loss. For your whole family but especially you cause I know you were really close the last few years. I know his cousin Geri is up in heaven waiting to give him a big hug. Wish i could be at his memorial but im just to far away. RIP Richard and please tell Geri i miss her.

To Richard´s family, I was sorry to hear of his passing.
I only knew Richard for a short time but he made an impression in my life that most don´t.
I enjoyed our time together and when I met him he filled a hole in my life that I needed filled.
I enjoyed him talking about his collectables and the memories of how he got them.
He was also so proud of the job he did as a Longshoreman, and so happy when he moved up to B team.
He was my friend and I´m glad he was in my life.
