Richard had countless evenings gathered around our dinner table over the years. Those meals were a cornerstone of our shared history. He genuinely savored our cooking and always offering enthusiastic compliments. He truly embodied the spirit of a life lived with purpose, love, and simple profound pleasures.
Our sincerest and most heartfelt condolences to Ruth and her family.
Rest in Peace Richard.

Richard was a unique blend of humor, intelligence and amazing work ethic. His contributions to North America southeast archeology will help numerous current and future generations understand our past and living cultures. It was an honor to know him and call him my friend. Rest well.

I love you Grandpa, and I will always miss your warm embrace and the gentle words you´ve spoken over me since childhood. I cherish every moment we shared-every laugh, every quiet moment, every piece of comfort you gave without even trying. Watching you work on your archaeological studies is a memory I will forever hold close. Digging through your library as a child gave me a small glimpse into the wonder you carried, a wonder that continues to reveal itself in my artwork today. I hope you get to continue those studies in heaven, discovering wonders beyond anything here on earth. Your life, your love, and your legacy will keep echoing in my heart and in this world for years to come.
