So sorry for your loss. Richard´s parents and my parents were very close friends. Lots of fond memories.

I first met Richard when I was an IRS agent auditing one of his clients. The IRS would not have been happy about this, but we spent the morning on the audit and the afternoon drinking at a country club. Through his urging, I left the country club convinced that I should attend law school. I went to work for the firm shortly after the audit ended. Although he was my "boss" for more than 10 years, I always thought of him as a brother. Our happiest times together were spent watching UM football games together. I will miss knowing that I can call my "brother" just to pass the time of day. I send my love and sympathy to Judy, Amanda, and Justin. I know that you will miss him. Please know that I will miss him, too.
