Although there are many things we could say here in

remembrance of our friend, Richard, his brothers and sisters

say it best:

Our Brother

Having Richard as a brother was the greatest gift imaginable.

The lessons he taught us over the years have shaped who we

are today. Thank you, Richard for teaching us how to

recognize what’s really important in life. Don’t worry Be

Happy, was one of his favorite songs as a kid, and it truly

represents the way he lived.

We are all so blessed to have experienced Richard’s love

over the years, and while we are sad to say goodbye today,

we believe Richard would want us not to worry; not to be

sad, but to be happy and celebrate his life. So with that in

mind, we’d like to share some of the stories of Richard over

the years:

Richard was the happiest kid you’ve ever met. I’m sure he is

laughing as loud as he can right now…anyone who has ever

been in church with Richard should know what I am talking

about. He’d march down the isle with the 7 of us, jumping,

laughing, waving hi to everyone he saw,….AND

pronouncing ‘amen’ at the top of his lungs. It didn’t matter

that we were 5 minutes late, and mass had already started…

Richard would always let everyone know we had arrived.

He loved life, and ate it up…often times literally. 6 cloves of

garlic, whole sticks of butter, beer, bolognaise… he enjoyed

just about everything.

As most of you know, we spent our summers on the beach at

the Dunes Club. One of our favorite stories that mom tells, is

a day when Richard slipped away from her...he was very

4

quick back then… So she spent some time frantically

looking for him in his usual spots: the snack bar… the

bathhouses…sitting with some cute blondes on the beach.

Finally, she found Richard in the formal dining room. There

he was, sitting shirtless at a table in a soaking wet bathing

suit. Richard had found a formal wedding reception, and he

was happily enjoying a piece of their wedding cake. He

looked up and said “Hi Mom” as she gracefully excused

them from the reception.

There is more than one woman at the beach who has lost a

string bikini top with one swipe of Richard’s quick hand

while walking by, and an older couple that in one fell swoop

had their entire scrabble board scattered across the dunes

club beach.

You can’t talk about Richard without talking about our

parents. There wasn’t an activity that we did, that Richard

was not apart of. From Skiing, swimming, soccer….or just

watching his favorite sitcoms and cooking fine foods with

mom and dad, Richard and our parents did everything

together. They were a real team.

He often rode in the cart while my parents played golf. Last

spring he was finally fed up that they never let him play.

Mom and dad were taking their fairway shots on the 9th

hole,

leaving Richard sitting in the cart critiquing their form.

Richard had had enough, and decided to hijack the golf cart.

He floored it, jumped two sand traps, and almost gave both

my parents a heart attack before stopping short of the water

with a big smile on his face. Nice move Rich.

Richard was tough and brave. He was dealt a tough hand, but

played it as well as he possibly could, and always with a

smile on his face. His courage was inspiring, and his

happiness was contagious.

5

He was loved by everyone, made us all better people, and

infected us with his smile and warm embrace. The love he

shared with all of us, can still be felt in the room, and will

always be here.

We could not be more proud to be his siblings. He was the

happiest, toughest, bravest, and kindest person we’ve ever

met.

Thank you Richard for teaching us these life lessons, and

thank you all for surrounding him with so much love. Let’s

celebrate his life, and pass on the gifts he shared with us to

everyone we know.

With All Our Love,

Chris, Veronica, Becca, and Kyle

~~~~~~

Thank

Richard’s motto “don’t worry be happy” was something he

consistently gave to others. His ability to get the most out of

a day put a smile on the faces of those around them.

Whether skipping down the halls of Cornerstone School or

participating in the activities of the Dyer Ave day services

program Richard’s warm smile, affectionate interactions and

infectious laugh, showed he lived his motto.

Don’t let that lousy shot or missed putt get you down.

Honor Richard

and do yourself a favor;

Don’t Worry Be Happy!
