Richard was a very active and enthusiastic member of the Hershey Rotary Club. The past few years he could be counted on to join other members out in the community doing service projects. He always had a smile and kind word to share with everyone. He will be missed. Prayers and best wishes go out to his family.

My sincerest sympathy on the passing of Richard. He was a pleasure to know and made me laugh, He had a heart of gold and a willingness to help others. I am thankful that I was blessed to know him and be his neighbor at Briarcrest Apartments. He will be sorely missed by his friends here.
Comfort and Prayers to all his family for such a great loss.
