During the 1998 deer season
Richie got his first deer, a nine point buck
Richie and his always present and contagious smile
will be missed by family, friends, fellow racers and fans.
He will be remembered for his giving nature. In the last
race of the 1998 season, with the point standing
in the balance, Richie stopped his car on the track
to get assistance for another driver.
This was Richie.
