Richard was passionate about improving his local community and devoted a generous amount of his time, energy, and ideas for the benefit of Morrisville. He was an early member of the Morrisville Action neighborhood group that has done much to improve the transparency, efficiency, and accountability of Morrisville government. His long hand-written letters filled with passion and good insights were a powerful reminder that good government is a uniquely human endeavor. He will be missed.

My sincere sympathy to the family. Always remember Almighty God is close to those crushed in spirit and broken at heart. May he provide you with the strength needed during this difficult time of your life.

I will always remember Richard as a caring and genuine soul who sacrificed many hours of time and effort to make our community of Morrisville, NC a family oriented place to live. He valued the "small town" feel and spirit. He did indeed make a positive difference in Morrisville's history. I am honored to have known him so well and to call Richard (and Linda) my friend.
