Richard worked in a number of television series, and movies, most notably as the Guru in the film, “All of Me,” and the crazy General in “The In-laws.” He is survived by his son Richard, a musician, sister Alice Langone, brother Albert, brother-in-law Mike Langone, sister-in-law Catherine Dillon, cousin Mario Libertini of Abruzzi, Italy, cousin Joe DiTuillio, beloved nieces and nephews, former wife, and friend Melinda Dillon, and many true and great friends.
