I am so sorry for your loss, i knew Debbie as a teen, & worked w/ Richard. I know he was a nice man & fought very hard for life.My condolences to your family.

I am so deeply sorry to learn of the passing of my dear old friend, Richie Haas. We became inseparable friends in 1st grade, spending time together at both our homes after school, selling soft pretzels along Kensington Avenue in the summer, always laughing and having a good time. We remained close up til the time that Jr.High separated us - but always stayed in touch. I was lucky enough to catch up with him a few times before the move to Georgia. Please extend my deepest sympathy and condolences to all in his family. He was truly a wonderful guy and I will remember his smile always. Sincerely, Bob Warkulwiz-Philadelphia

Dear Bernice,

I am so sorry to hear about Richard. You are in my prayers. He was much respected and will be greatly missed. I knew Richard though both you and my brother Hakim. Take care of yourself and be blessed.

Sincerely,
James Blunt,

I only knew Richard for a brief time.
Yet, it only takes a moment to know decency, competence and character.

BERNIE  RICHARD WAS A GOOD MAN AND A GREAT SUPERVISIOR PLEASE ACCEPT MY CONDOLENCE.RICHARD WAS ALWAYS A GENTLEMAN AND A CONSUMATE PROFESIONAL RICHARD WAS NOT ONLY MY SUPERVISIOR HE WAS A TRUE AND TRUSTED FRIEND. I WILL SAY A PRAYER FOR HIM AT THE MASJID.

Bernie & family,
Rich and I worked together for many years and, I can truly say he was a great friend, co-worker, innovator and a pleasure to be with, in or out of the office. We will miss him and will never forget him or the impact he had on every one of the many lives he touched, especially mine. Go with God, dear friend.

I an so sorry to hear of Richard's passing.  We started at the same time as Civil Service employees, although Richard was there prior to that when he worked for the school board.  Such a smart , quiet presence.  He was also briefly my neighbor when he lived on Herbert Street..  We will all miss him.

Bernie and all of Richard's family:  Having worked with Rich closely for more than twenty years, I can attest to the fact that he was the best of us. He was an expert on tax abatements, appeals and so many other facets of our BRT work life. However, he was an expert on living a good and decent life as well which was so much more important. Great humor and great fun to be with.  Always ready with a smile or a wisecrack. He will be sorely missed.

My condolences to the family.  Richard was a true professional with impressive knowledge, and more importantly, Richard was a true gentleman and a good man

Bernie, my condolences to you and the family on the passing of Richard. I was very sorry to hear about this. We at BRT/OPA know Richard couldn't wait to retire and move away and I remember how he was counting his days until retirement.
I worked closely with him for many years and I'm glad to say he was a great colleague and friend. Keeping your family in my prayers.                 Lorraine Pearson-Broughton

Bern and Family,
Sorry to hear about Richard.  He gave a good fight for the last couple of years. He was a great guy knowing him from the BRT.

So sad to hear of Richard's passing away.
I had the pleasure of working with him at the BRT.
He was always very helpful and did his job with a great deal of pride and yet had a wonderful sense of humor.I enjoyed our interactions and his knowledge of his work and his hobbies.
My sincere condolences to the Haas family.

Dear Bernie
Flash and I saw Richard's obituary in the Inquirer last night.  We are so very sorry that he suffered for so long but are sure that you were always by his side, giving him some peace during his struggle.  Above all, Bern, it was obvious to us that he truly loved you, as well as his children.
We hope that your many, many good memories of your time together will help carry you through whatever lies ahead.
I don't know what to say to you except that Richard, your family, and especially you, will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Last night we shared funny stories about times that we shared with you and Richard.  I hope you dont find that offensive, but we think that that is how Richard would want us to remember him. 
As you said, we know that Ian was there in heaven waiting to greet him. There is a certain amount of peace in that.
You have our very best wishes, friendship and prayers, always.
Love, Flash and Beth

Dear Bernadette and family;

                Love and God Bless
