~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The following was lovingly written
by Richard's family...
Richard was quite the character.
He was unique and the
world is dimmer without him.
His passion for life, his family,
devoted career in medicine,
a published author, an artist,
are just a few of his "enthusiasms".
He never stopped learning
or trying something new including taking
a college calculus course recently
to know what his granddaughter was learning.
