Richie was absolutely the life of any party. And more importantly, he was the type of person who made you feel welcome at said party. I often found myself gravitating towards him at Jamestown events because of his personable nature, and stayed for many lengthy conversations because of his creative and hilarious anecdotes. Even when visiting Los Angeles, he would remind me of some of my favorite spots back home in Atlanta, instantly bringing me back and making me feel at home. I will certainly miss his kind smile and my thoughts are with his family and friends.
