Richard was the long-time greeter at GF and I read on Facebook this morning he has passed away. A small piece of the Disney magic has been lost today. RIP Richard.

I was thinking about him frequently yesterday and wondering how he was doing. An angel is smiling down on us from heaven today.

I’m sorry I didn’t get a chance to meet him. So many Disney vloggers who went to the Grand Floridian made a point to feature him. He touched so many lives and will be remembered by the whole community.

He was very gracious and kind to my wife when we got married. Escorted her into the Grand Floridian for our pictures. A real gentlemen. RIP & God's speed Richard.

I am so glad to have met this wonderful man. I met him during my last January GF stay, he was so kind and sweet.

Prayers and thoughts for his family.

I agree with all of the posts. It was so nice to see him at the Grand Floridian with a smile for all. Will be missed. He was irreplaceable.
