For several days I have tried to come up with words that I hoped would be consoling in this thread...without much success.
I think many here feel the same way I do, that Richard’s post really struck to the core, and I know we all feared the worst in a very profound way when he went silent.
Knowing what his convictions were I know he is now whole and happy, but leaves behind a wife he loved dearly, family, friends, even us strangers on the internet, dealing with his absence.
Godspeed to you Richard.
