Oh mon Dieu!!! Where to start???

I have known Richie for about 13 years and counting. Something that is certain is that you can always count on Richie if you are in a bind (or not). To party, to paint, to move, to drive you somewhere, to enjoy life and all.

It has been countless amount of times were I was speaking (what I thought was in English) to his friends which he introduced me to and saw (especially at the beginning) that they didn’t get what I was saying. They politely smiled at me and quickly, discreetly looked at Richie, hoping for some insight as of what did the froggy just said… Richie immediately laugh (big mouth) and translated to them. This still happens from time to time especially when it is late in the night or/and party but I want to thank my better half Kathy, who’s now helping me out ;-)


HAPPY BIRTHAY, BROTHER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER!!!!

Fredo - a.k.a "Froggy"

In your journey of life....

In your journey of life you have the privilege to meet people of all creeds. People of all sizes, strengths and weaknesses. Most of those people are fly-bys that past you by or fall behind. There are those people who you're stuck with due to the overrated family ties. But if you're lucky and have been blessed with that special gift of friendship. A friendship of a man with passion, honor and respect. His word is golden and has been riding shot gun for a while with you on your path of life to help you, laugh with you, mourn with you, celebrate with you, respect you and ultimately genuinely love you. This special gift's name is Richie Waite. He has been there for everyone he loves and even the ones he doesn't! He wears his heart on his sleeve and is consistent on who he is and what he stands for. Richie my brother, you're one of a kind and I am proud to say your are one of the best and unique people I ever had the privilege to call one of my best friends! ~
