  1. Jane, Diane, David and families: I am so sorry to hear of Richard’s passing. I have fond memories spent at your home and camping. May God continue to watch over all of you at this very difficult time.

  2. I have had many very pleasant conversaations with Dr. Reilly over the years that I worked
    in the Payroll Office at SUNY Geneseo. What a wonderful person and a true lover of
    animals especially dogs. I know that he will be missed greatly.
