Saddened to learn of Richard's death. He was a kind, intelligent, interesting man. Enjoyed sharing stories of events and people we knew socially. We both enjoyed fine art and would frequently send Christmas card of a special artist or museum. Was proud to drive him to the Patton Museum near Palm Desert for Veteran's Day 2018 since he was in the military and he would have a nice memory. My sympathy and prayers to his family. While I never met them, I could tell from Richard's expressions that he had a fine and large extended family who loved him.
