Our deepest sympathy to Barbara and family.
Richie was my cousin and we were close when we were young. Last year he called and we spoke from time to time. We are so grateful to him for introducing me to my husband of 52 years!
He was kind and always funny.
He will be missed.

So sad. Richie was a favorite of our family for so many years. He was Bob´s oldest and greatest friend. So many stories of their years together, told and retold with great fondness and laughter. They are together again, drinking a beer and eating Apple streudel!
I have not seen Richie since Bob´s funeral, but I have thought of him often, always with a smile in my heart..
So very sorry for your loss.
