Richard was always a joy to be around at Digital. I also worked with Ellen at Kaman Sciences before she joined Digital.

I worked with Dick for several years at DEC. He was always a gentleman. I remember how much Ellen and Dick loved to dance; and how proud he was of his family.
He will be missed. My condolences to his loved ones.
