Richard was such a vibrant, intelligent and talented man with a huge heart. I was not privileged to spend a great deal of time with him, but I treasure the moments I did get to spend with him. I am so sorry that I don't think he ever knew how much his guidance and kindness meant to me. I grieve for the loss of such a wonderful person. I hope that your terrific memories of your life with him bolster your spirits in the days to come. Please know that he is fondly remembered and missed by all that knew him, even though it wasn't for long enough. My deepest sympathy and condolences, Linda
