Dear Susan, Nick and Camille,
We have all known one another for so many years now, and we have lived and worked together in the Faith and for Pro-Life as well as all the good and bad that comes with life on this rock. Richard was a very large personality and as a fellow Italian, he was much more than that to us. He always had a ready joke, a ready smile, open doors, food to share, a true loving person. He was my brother, and I will be always looking to him for his intercessory prayers now. I miss our large gatherings with food, wine, and loud conversations. I remember many times gathering around what he called the Purgatory to roast hot dogs to pass out as kids and folks came by for All Hallow's Eve. I remember his Catholic Radio and the Rosary, what a blessing. Our love for him and all of you, remains. Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine; et lux perpetua luceat eis. Ps. 64, 2, 3. †
