Hi Richard!
I grew up watching you on TV. My grandfather thought you were the greatest and anything my grandpa loved I loved as well! You are an amazing man and your presence on TV is the best.
I am from Iowa but moved to Peoria in 2001. I think it is sooooo cool living in the same town Richard Pryor grew up in! I was sad to see what they did to Pryors Place. This is your town and I hope if and when you make it back I will have the opportunity to meet you! Keep us Peorians posted on any upcoming plans to visit! Luv u RP

kkarcz,
If you are referring to Pryor's Place the bar-we shut it down cause those people were infringing on Richard's rights...illegal to use someone's name and likeness and image qithout licensing it!

Jennifer,
oh wow.. I am not from peoria so I had assumed it belonged to you and Richard. I certainly can understand you closing it for that purpose. Very sad.... would be cool though if he had a place here.... do you plan to come here ever in the future? would love to meet you and your husband
