We will miss you in this life Richard, but we will see you in the next.
Everything in life is a circle, all things return to the source, only to be reborn again. A piece of Richard lives inside us all everytime we roll.

R.IP go on the site richard taylor memorial fund
November 17th, 2006 at 2:26 am
It is kinda sad that we all only agree on something after somebody dies. I’m sure he would want us too work harder and pull together as a community.
November 17th, 2006 at 3:28 am
I never knew him very well, but i do agree with most ppl here when they say that he looked like an awsome person to be with definetly. It is good that we have footage of him so that we can all kno that he is still looking over all of us and he will definetly be with his family and friends forever. Rest In Peace man….
November 17th, 2006 at 2:17 pm

November 17th, 2006 at 10:11 pm
I’ll never forget you Richard. you was teached me to do wardflip, I’ll never forget the time that we was past in the vip room at BCN x-games talking about life and rollerblading. I don’t know where you was go, but I know that you must be happy there, cuz you was helped everybody that was asked for you help, you was been a great rollerblader, and now you are a legend, nobody will forgive you.
rest in peace…
November 18th, 2006 at 2:07 pm

November 18th, 2006 at 9:45 pm
I know that everyone is sad about this. I am too. But I won’t say RIP. It is a sad thing to do. I know he is in a better place than we are. And we should be happy about that.
