Richard was larger than life in statue, personality, and the love he showed for those he cared about. He proudly service in the USAF station at Nellis AFB and return to LV, NV many years later when he began his career in the gaming industry. He spent the last 15+ years working at the Venetian Casino as games supervisor “pit boss”. He was an avid sports fan working for awhile as a sports photographer.
