He loved the Adirondacks Mountains whether it was reading endless books on their history or the many years he was a member of the Duanesburg Hunting Club.  He held a special place in his heart for those Mountains after being lost in them for a week when he was 16 years old.  As a living tribute, 5 trees representing each of his children, will be planted in our nation’s forests in his memory.

Richard was buried in Grove Cemetery, Delanson NY on April 14, 2020 to finally be laid to rest with his wife, Judith, who passed away in 2012.
