Spoke with Richard's wife this afternoon.

It's not very good. He is still in ICU...the bruises are healing and the surgeries are working...but he is on a ventilator and cannot breathe on his own.

He is responsive, but not communicative. At best, this will be a long-term recovery.

Keep the prayer network going... it is quite far from being no longer needed.

Will try and update in a few days.

It is with much sadness and a tear in my eye...

...Richard passed away this morning from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident.

He was a good friend to me, and the Cobra community at large. I treasure even more now the time spent together at SAAC-38.

He will be missed.
