We found each other on Facebook after many, many years. You truly were the funniest guy ever.  We loved you so much.   

Love Theresa Mininni

When I think of my uncle Richie, I will always remember him as the guy who lit up the room. He was a loud and proud kind of guy! He would say to me always growing up, “Do good in school that way you can get a good job and make a lot of money like me when you grow up”. Turns out, I chose a similar career path as my uncle in the tech field. As of a couple of months ago I was gifted some time with uncle Richie and we where able to talk about a few systems that I use at my job and he knew exactly what I was talking about. It was great being able to bond with him over those small things before his passing. 
I also remember he would come around and scoop us kids up and take us fishing at this pond in the middle of 595 and the turnpike. 
I pass by that pond everyday going to work now and, I always think about those childhood memories. 
My Condolences to my cousin Michael for losing your father. 
I love you cousin and I love and will forever miss you uncle Richie!
A Great Uncle!

He was the best God Father and Uncle. At least once a month he would pick me up w a bouquet of flowers and have a whole day planned. He would take me to the lake on 595 and we would fish all day and he would cook me dinner after. He was the best cook, he loved making chicken cordon bleu, zuppa di pesce and more. He had so much patience w me as a child and he made me laugh uncontrollably. I’m going to miss him tremendously. I wish we had more time together. I love you Uncle Rich.
