It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of my beloved uncle, Richard “Richie” Parente.

He was a kind and loving man who touched the lives of everyone around him. Richie loved his family deeply and was always present in their lives. His quick wit and sense of humor could brighten any room he walked into.

Richie’s sudden passing has left a hole in many hearts. This GoFundMe has been created to help cover funeral expenses and ease the burden of medical bills for his family.

To know Richie was to love him. We are deeply grateful for the prayers, support, and love during this difficult time. Thank you sincerely to everyone who has reached out.
