RIP Richard.

He was an easy target for comediens and bigots, but he helped many people get off their lazy butts and exercise.  He did a lot of good.  👍👍

He had a very sad childhood and struggled so hard with his weight.  He was such a kind person and his fans knew he understood their plight.  It was also sad how he just disappeared and became a recluse.  I hope he had some sense of peace and knew he made a difference.  RIP :rose:

I remember him being on the Howard Stern show a couple of times.  He was such a bright light - funny as hell - and just rolled with it when Howard would make gay innuendos.  Good times.

Funny guest on Howard Stern for years then I think Howard went too far and Richard never came back as a guest.
