His wife, Tanya Martinez Johnson, shared that Richard’s unexpected passing has left a significant void, one filled with memories of strength and love despite his many years of hardship.
In a heartfelt post, Tanya expressed gratitude for the additional eleven years she was able to share with Richard after a life-threatening incident more than a decade ago.
