I met Richard when we were students at St. Louis University in 1962. We were close friends throughout the years, and would often spend time together in St. Louis or in Albuquerque, where I live. We shared many interests, including French culture and cinematography. I will miss him, and extend my condolences to Deborah, Laura, and all the family.

I am so sorry to hear of Richard’s passing. We were good friends since college! He was my travel buddy; Alaska, New Orleans, Mo, and Illinois.
