[RE-wrenches] Community says farewell to solar pioneer Gottlieb - Brattleboro Reformer

[Larry Brown]

Richard was one of the early pioneers who brought Renewable Energy awareness and installations into the public mind

I would call him my friend, one of my early mentors and a constant source of inspiration and guidance whenever I had some design questions that I needed feedback with.
He knew how to play and be resourceful and innovative.  He was a natural teacher and we co-taught together many Solar Design and Installation courses for Solar Energy International. 

Richard has left behind a rich legacy of installs and many talented installers and designers who gained their beginnings in this field under Richards mentoring.
He will be much missed by those who knew him, worked with him and got their start under his guidance.
