Richard was 9 years old when the Leafs won their last Stanley Cup and has been so ever patient to see them win again! Richard was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in Dec 2021. Richard was a fighter right up to the very end! We are so proud of him and are grateful to have had him be apart of our lives.
