| [Serious] R.I.P. Richk_1957 I found out this morning that our Rich died the morning of December 4th, about an hour after his last post. He had an epileptic seizure and heart attack in the subway on his way to work that morning. The funeral has already taken place.
I spoke with his sister and she's having trouble finding his friends to notify them. Mainly she can't get into his email accounts, even with his own computer. I know about his ix.netcom.com account but don't know how to reach them to get her a phone number to call or what she'll need to have the information released to her. -- The most courageous thing you can do is be honest.

| If anyone who was at the Meet and Greet this year took pictures with Rich in them, please post them. I'm going to link his sister to this thread and I'm sure she'd love to see them. -- The most courageous thing you can do is be honest. The weight of a tongue can destroy a person. | |

| Re: [Serious] R.I.P. Richk_1957 I couldnt find any pictures of Rich, as he was usually behind the camera, but I guess this is the next best thing.
Rest in peace, my Pickle Providing Friend. -- You're so vain... I bet you think this post is about you. | |

| wow, I'm so sorry to hear that. I only met him for the first time at that M&G, but its hard to believe he won't be with us anymore. At least he'll be here in spirit.
Rest in peace Rich.  -- |My Blog|Fegul.com| | |

RIP pal!
I just met him at the Brooklyn M&G, and it was great fun to sit and talk cameras and ham radio with him...

3 edits | Although I never had the pleasure of meeting Rich, Gracie did and spoke of him warmly: "My heart goes out to Rich's family---his sense of fun warmed the meet and greets in a special way, and he was a valued unique member of the community, which is dimmer for losing him. Peace and pickles, Rich, with love."

| I just got off the phone with his sister and she's really needing some happy stories about him right now, especially from the meet and greet as it was two days before.
If you'd like to tell her stories, either IM them to me and I'll send them along or IM me for her email address. -- The most courageous thing you can do is be honest. The weight of a tongue can destroy a person. | |
