Richard Gottlieb

Only got the news this morning that Richard Gottlieb has died. He died Wednesday night at the age of 76. Richard was a local character and a leader in solar technology.

He also had a vast collection of bad jokes and we'd save jokes for each other. He brightened countless workdays for me. I hadn't seen Richard in a couple of years but he was the kind of person you never forget and always remember with a smile. I will miss him. My sympathies to his wife Carol and his family. He was one of a kind.
