Dear Marsha and Cindy,
What an amazing story of Richard's life! So sorry to hear of your loss. Although it has been many years, we think of you. There are wonderful memories from so long ago like Ballet at Ms. Schwab's studio.
You undoubtedly have so many good things to think about and help you through. Bless you all!
Much love,
The Feldman Family

I understood that his zeal for justice for his clients was so great that he never took a fee. A wonderful generous man.

Richard, a dear man who I have known for over 55 years. I never heard a harsh word from you....only love. We'll meet again, I'm sure. You will be missed.

There is no doubt that Richard was a giant in his profession, but he was also an extraordinarily warm and friendly person one-on-one. I had the distinct pleasure of getting to know him over the past ten years, and I will sincerely miss his humour, his thoughtfulness, and his intellect.

I still recall Richard's quotes for law students- especially the one about unraveling many a knot, but not the Master Knot. Intriguiged by human fate, Richard was generous in sharing his guidance and support with students. I am grateful to have known him. My thoughts are with you.
