Richard Lewis Weiner, age 60, died on April 11, 2018 in Atlanta, GA.
Richard is survived by his wife Yajaira Huice-Weiner and his three children Alejandra Ester Weiner-Bámaca, Kaysel Caribay Weiner-Huice and Samuel David Weiner-Huice, by his sisters Nan Weiner (Issie Lyon), Susan Crager, and Barbara Bainbridge (James) and by his nieces Sara, Mia (George), Naomi, Samantha (Erik), and by his nephews Adam (Fernanda), Aaron, and David.

Richard was a caring husband and his children were the heart of his existence. Richard's core values -- kindness and honesty -- shaped his approach to the world and are his legacy to his children. He had total faith in the goodness of humankind and worked tirelessly to make this world a better place.
He needed sunlight to thrive. He loved life in the tropics, running, hiking, scuba diving, paragliding, traveling, camping, and reading in a hammock by a river. He was an avid reader. He was also very proud of his command of the Spanish language and of his understanding of the Hispanic culture. Richard saw a special type of beauty in mathematics that he tried to instill in his students from all over the world. He was a very special type of man. We are going to miss him dearly!
