Goodbye Chris.
July 5th, 2007 by Tim Riley
Let me start off this post with a really low quality, unflattering close-up of Chris Richards. Right before the Mariners game, Chris was scheduled to leave Seattle and fly back to Philadelphia in order to continue his education at the very prestigious Temple University. His ability to sell raffle tickets was crucial to our fundraising success to date, so he will be missed. Before Chris took off, he taped a quick exit interview. Although Chris has now left, he will not be gone forever. Check back for special appearances later on in the Tour as it comes back across to the east coast.
Hey Chris & Tim~ that was an astounding profound interview! I felt like I was listening to Matt on the Today show!! You guys are awesome…you are such wonderful role models for young and old! Tour for the Cure is lucky to have you guys…you are surely “representin and keepin it real” your wisdom and dedication is outstanding!! Chris it is great to have you back home…and heading to Grad School. I am confident you will join Tim as soon as you can to continue your mission…Hey Tim, we have a barbeque and a place to stay waiting for you in Sea Isle City New Jersey….Tim…hang in there! Love and hugs, Mom R.
Ihop or Quizzno’s? You know you’d choose IHOP anyday Chris, the two times i visited , I was in Ihop 3 times with you guys!
Hey Chris,
You will be sorely missed by The Tour for the Cure. Thank you for volunteering your time so selflessly. The “Tour” just won’t be the same without your raucous laugh, boyish charm, and silly antics. Good luck in school!
Chris, While it is great to have you home as you were missed by all, the Tour will lose an asset and Tim will lose a faithful side-kick (who always let him win), but time marches on and so must we. The experiences and good works are priceless and will serve you well.
Tim,
Best wishes on the balance of the Tour. Keep up the excellent photography as the pictures captured the moment and showed the beauty of America and the love of the game. Great
job done by all.
