It's was hard to take it all in , Richard leaving this life , He gave us so much as an actor ,comedian, producer.But what he gave most us most , was his honesty.He took his pain, shared it with us and made us laugh.He held his life up, front and center for all to see.His views on this life made people think .He brought us so much joy.It 's only natural to feel a loss,But he will never be gone.He was blessed with so much talent,No one's star shone brighter.He led the way for many ,and the footprints He left behind , will never be erased or filled.He changed comedy in such a positive way ,How many comedian 's just stand on stage telling jokes nowadays ? Not Many ,from Jerry Seinfield to Margaret Cho , most make life observations .And Richard's Life was something to observe. And to learn from . Just Like Elvis, I think his success's and failures were a lesson to be learned in entertainment and in everyday life. Ford didn't invent the combustion engine , Shakespere wasn't the first to take pen to paper. Many could say Richard Pryor continued on a path started by Lenny Bruce ,Mort Sahl or Dick Gregory .I say his career as an actor ,Comedian ,Producer Writer , Director ,broke all boundries ,reached new heights, and took what was a path, and created a paved 8 lane Superhighway, relating Internationally , Universally .He is to comedy what Jimi Hendrix is to guitar playing,the measure of which all who come after him ,will be judged .No one will ever match his legacy, ALL HAIL KING RICHARD !!!

bcddjjsc690,
Yeah---that's what I'm talking about...
What those two did to their father in the last two years, well, it was just pitiful...and I claw the eyes out of anybody who fucks with someone I love...and I love Richard as much today, as the day of our first marriage, our second...he is part of my dna...and I am blessed for that!
Those fools who mess with my man...now or then...well, I have a renewed strength ...because I have much to do on Richar's behalf...

You said it all.. I remember that clip you sent me. And thinking back on this past week, remembering his spirit helped me through this tough week. Thank you Richard, for allowing us all to see your spirit.
