Richard was a man of great warmth and wisdom who could discuss the strange behaviors of the people under his care with compassion and quiet concern. Richard was a pillar of the mental health community in Monmouth County and he will be greatly missed. I know how much he cared for all of you in his family as he never hesitated to talk about his family with great enthusiasm. Please know that he was respected and beloved by all of us in the mental health field.
