    Noelle, I am so very sorry to hear the news of dear Richard’s passing. I worked in PSSG with Richard at HGS Liverpool. He had been there before me and often went out of his way to give me tips and tricks for doing the job well; he was generous with both his time and knowledge. He was a gentle soul, always speaking lovingly of you and his little dog. I knew he was experiencing some health matters, but I am very shocked and saddened to hear that he passed away. My sincerest condolences to you and all his family. Rest in peace, Richard…the world is one sadder place without you.

    I am so sorry to hear this. I knew he struggled with health issues for a while and I was very worried that something this serious might happen but I was always hopeful things might straighten out for him. I will miss Richard. In the past so many years him and I hadn’t hanging around like we did years ago, but that is how life goes sometimes. My most sincere condolences. He will be missed.
