Richard was a friend, great guy, respected professional, and a pleasure to work with. I enjoyed working with him at LANTDIV and working security system installations outside of the office with our own businesses. We had the common bond of being from Massachusetts and supporting the same New England sports teams. Dianne I am glad that I was able to visit you and Richard while in town back in July and had a great conversation! Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. He will be deeply missed!

He was a brilliant man with a gentle heart,  He will be missed but not forgotten.

Dianne, Lisa, Richard, Michael and Randy!

My deepest condolences on Richard’s passing.  Dianne, it seems like yesterday that I was visiting you both in Florida…that was back on February 27, 2021.  I thought, then, that we would enjoy many more visits. 

Richard was an awesome man!   He was, in the early years, my best friend, Bob’s, big brother.   He was big then, and even bigger, in my eyes, when I last saw him in February. 

He was loved and he will be missed.   He was such a great guy!

Grace and peace to all of you!

Mr Paradis was the best girls basketball coach ever!! He showed us what true sportsmanship is all about!! He will forever be in my thoughts and prayers!!!

i am sorry to hear of Richard's passing!.  I knew him through my design -construction working days.  He was always good to be around and work with.  I am sure he will be missed.

When Hedy, Olivia and I moved to the United States in 1973, Richard, along with his family became our first friends. So much so that we have always thought of him as family. His passing has left a huge hole in our hearts, but we know that he is now in a better place and that we will see him again one day.
Our love and heartfelt best wishes go out to Dianne, Lisa, Rick, Michael and the rest of his family

Richard was a great engineer and co-worker.   He and I had a trip to Newfound Land to find were the  oil tank was leaking.  After the station emptied the WW II tank we waded around inside the tank and taking electronic reading of the steel tank thickness and found every thing meet specs.  We convinced  the Capt that leaks were coming from the rusting valve pits.  An quick an inexpensive  solution.

I worked with Richard at LantDiv. He was a respected professional and a friend, truly a great guy, liked and respected by all.

Richard was a great guy to work with at Lantdiv, he was a well respected in his careers as an Electrical Engineer and as a sound/noise consultant.  Since mechanical things tend to make noise, he assisted me many times in providing expertise in reducing sound levels.  He was a social guy and we talked about Lake Gaston many times.  Condolences to his family and may he RIP.

I’m so sorry to hear of Richard’s death. I hope you are are all bearing up under such difficult circumstances. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.
