Enjoyed working with Dick at FS95C for about 8 years….great Captain and leader, always thinking of the
guys. My sincere condolences to the family….RIP Dick.
we were at 33s in the early 80s. he was the engineer on the ‘B’.
good times. he was a very good man.
the A/O & both engineers and capt. are now gone. it was only yesterday.
I first met Rich, he was a new Captain 1 and ran into him often while working Rescue2 . Later l transferred to Rescue 95 B. Rich transferred into 95’s on the C shift. I enjoyed our times talking in the front office, his unique sense of humor and was a great officer. But what stands out most to me our Cll fell out of the truck and sustained a serious head injury and those initial minutes our adrenaline was obviously up and Cap Olsen was the one that got us back on task. RIP Rich.
I had the honor of working with Richard for several years at 95s where his calm approach to handling any situation was always appreciated. He was a good friend and travelling with him to ball games was a part of life I will not forget. Rest in peace
Very nice man, I had the pleasurer to work with, Rest In peace
