This is Julie the wife of Richard Pizano on October 26th we were were informed richard passed away at the hospital he was receiving care for the past month for severe liver damage and was found unsustainable and had to be given medicine to pass away peacefully in his sleep. he was well loved and respected by so many people at seaworld the job was his whole life and losing it meant he lost so much of his aspirations and all the wonderful people he connected with in his life, he talked very fondly about all of his time there and his wife and sons loved him deeply and did everything they could do to help him try and recover or give him comforts in his struggles. we want to try and do something for him anything to just help make his memory alive and the reaching out of his coworkers and friends still with him were such a potential blessing to hear and appreciate anything they offer as a kindness we could never know how to repay or appreciate and will reach out to people to organize a final toast at our home. he would have wanted us all to share drinks and joke about his effect and how much he touched our lives
