I was a close friend of Richards and I will remember him for the rest of my life. He was a troubled soul who struggled with personal demons like all of us. He loved the sea and we dreamed of sailing to the Caribbean together. I will always think of him as a brother in arms. May he rest in peace. Stephan Bolton.

Though I didn't know him for long... I could tell he was a kind soul. As someone who comes from a poor income family, I seen him a few times on the bus, and once during some of my volunteering at souls harbor.
He sat with me on the bus, and told me of all of his adventures on sea, and his long hair that gave him the name "Hippie". I remember he told me something I'll never forget for as long as I live...
"You have honest eyes, I'm glad I got to sit with someone so kind..."
Thank you Hippie... For I was the one lucky enough to know you, not the other way around.
P.S.
Kalika Himmelman.

I only had the pleasure of knowing Richard a few months, but it was long enough to know how very unique and wonderful he was. He will be greatly missed.

I had the pleasure of sharing many early mornings with Richard as he rode Bridgewater Transit. He always asked how my family was doing, and was very positive and optimistic looking towards the future. He once told me, if you see a dime on the ground, that means someone who passed is thinking about you, or with you. I was away on the 20th and unaware that he passed. I was with my mother, she picked up a dime, and said the exact same thing. So if you found a dime around that time, know Richard was with you.
God bless you Richard, you're home.

Richard was always polite, respectful, appreciative, and thankful whenever our paths crossed. Richard always asked about my family and the people we both knew. Always had a hug for me. I will miss seeing him and the hugs.❤

To the family,
I am very sorry for your loss. I met Richard a few years ago, and we chatted about our families because we were from the same area.. I knew his Sarty grandparents quite well as I often went to their service station as a child. Richard was always pleasant and I enjoyed chatting when ever I seen him. May you soar with the angels Richard.
Sincerely,
Heather Wagner-Brine

I am sorry to hear of Richard's passing.
Although I did not know him well he always had a ready smile and was grateful for the smallest of gestures. He will be missed around souls harbour.
