Dear Elaine and Kristen, I'm so sorry to read of Richards passing. He was always a gentleman and kind to me at Johnson & Johnson. I hope he passed peacefully. My deepest sympathy.

Dear Elaine and family, we were very shocked and saddened to hear of the sudden passing of my cousin/Godfather Richard. As a young boy I looked up to him as an icon and mentor. When I was in high school and trying to determine what I wanted to do in my life it was my Godfather who visited me and suggested that the upcoming world of computers was the way to go. Took his advice and had a successful career in computer programming and management. We are sorry that we cannot be at his service as we are out of town. Please accept our apologies and sympathy.
