Alway a fixture at DragonCon. His panels were so down to earth. Kinda like hanging out in his living room and just talking Another action hero from my youth gone. Sad.

He will always be Apollo to me. I also remember him playing Jan of Jan and Dean fame in a TV movie around the same time as BSG.

Very sad news.
Talked to him at many conventions and he was always kind.
R.I.P. Apollo.

Long Live The Original Captain Apollo!!! Rest In Peace....So Say We All!!!!

As others said, a very kind soul.

Got a photo with me, Richard, Terry Carter & Dirk at Galacticon III.

I've heard those that know him well, besides the kindness also say
what an intense person he could be (in a good way).

You can read that intensity in his eyes in all the closeups of him
in serious situations in the original BSG series.

This sucks. Richard carried the torch for BSG along side us fans when everyone had written it off. He was so giving of his time and truly was a fan himself. I'll miss him.

Richard was a friend and a wonderful man. He had such a huge impact on so many people and fans alike.

I've scraped together a bunch of pictures from my archives and put together some thoughts on the small amount of time he and I shared.

I'm late in posting to this. He seemed like he was in such good shape. I understand he died of pancreatic cancer. My sister died of the same disease just a few months ago. I met him a few years back att the Calgary expo. Very nice person, he was the only celebrity I've ever met who asked me what I did for a living. He also mentioned his mother was a Canadian originally from Saskatchewan. My heart goes out to his family. RIP.
