Just thinking of Rich today.

On Christmas eve 1968 as Frank Borman circled the moon he read from Genesis. Marge opened her stocking and found her diamond ring. We planned to marry at the end of junior year. A few weeks later during semester break of my sophomore year -- surprise-- we found out she was pregnantrn February 15, 1969 we were married. On august 29 I received the greatest gift ever. You were born. And what a gift you were. Just 13 months later your sister came into our lives. She was perfect.rn I return to those days more and more. My thoughts seem to turn backward. I miss you so.

Happy Birthday! Woke up today thinking of you - thinking how your life has been taken away unjustly. I know you are up there celebrating with all your family members and friends. We will never forget you. Love you always, Rosemarie

I remember seeing a photo of Richard and Danielle at the Padre Pio shrine in NJ about 6 years ago. While I am not a devoutly religious person, I do believe in the power of Padre Pio's healing. I have never forgotten Richard and Danielle's story and your family's insufferable pain. May God grant you all the peace that you deserve amid this heartbreaking tragedy. I will continue to pray for your family and Danielle's. Though it is sometimes impossible to see it believe, God truly is good. Love and positive thoughts to all of the Petrone Family, and my deepest sympathies for all of your suffering and sadness.

I continue to pray every night that Rich, Marge and Angela will find peace and that God has taken Richie and Danielle into heaven with him.

I read about the case this morning, in Philadelphia magazine I'm from South Philly myself. I read it, right away. I can't imagine what you and the family go through every day all these years, as a mother and grandmother, my heart goes out to you, and your son is now in my prayers, they both are! I can't begin to understand what happened! But you don't disappear by yourself! Some one knows, that someone, will never come forward, it's the motive, that baffles me, WHY, god bless you all, Francesca Grimaldi

I'm sure the estranged husband was investigated?

When will they arrest Danielle's ex husband in this case. So obvious he hired a hit on this couple. God Bless them both and the families for their continuous sadness. Hopefully soon an arrest will be made.

I think its terrible that it took 9 years for the FBI to get off there ass’s. There pics should have been on the billboard a long time ago. I don’t know either one of the kids but I do remember the case. I think it was a pick-up truck they never found that either. I pray for there return.

Dearest Richard --- another year has gone by. You will always be in our hearts, thoughts and prayers. I know you are shining down on your family as so many good things are happening. Just know we all love you. Love, Rosemarie

Little Rich, rnrnYou will always be in my heart, I say a prayer for you everyday. I truly feel you are in that heavenly place. I'm not a man of many words so its hard for me to express what I really feel. I will get to see you someday and then I'll hug you and tell you what you meant to me.rnrnLove you always,rnrnJoe

Please always have Hope for their return, as without Hope, we have nothing! May Our Lord shine His radiance on Richie and Danielle, as well as their families! God be with all of you on this rememberance day!

Did not know Richard but I just watched his story on Vanished with Beth Holloway! What a tragic event! I hope one the family may have closure, and their hearts may begin to reheal! I pray that God continues to be with your family!

I wish this date didn't have to forever be a reminder of the day we lost you, bud. We have no choice in this matter, like something etched in stone. Like many other days of the year for me, it is a day of reflection. It's hard to do, but I try not to reflect on the horror of what happened since I have no control over that, but instead reflect on all that was great about you, my friend. I was happy to visit this site and see some new photos that I hadn't seen before. It felt like a chance to see you again in some way,..the only way that I can. I'll continue to think of and speak to you often, and will always remember the friendship we had. Forever in my heart and mind, buddy.rnrnYour pal,rnTP

I can't believe it has been nine years. I think of you often. Jimmy and I miss you so much. We talk about you all the time. We know that you are watching over all of us, and that you are still a part of every milestone that we encounter. Nine years seems like such a long time, but February 19 feels the same no matter how much time goes by. Love you.

I just wanted to let you know that I just read an article written by the courier pst on face book. I hope and pray that one day you will have answers. I'm from south Philly which is local to South Street. It got really bad around that time. There were gangs called wolf packs. They robbed myself ad a friend around 1 :00 leaving a bar. Just thought I should mention it. Prayers for your families. Take care, Karen White

I didnt know Richard but worked with Danielle! I cant begin to understand your pain but i have lost my parents and i know how that hurts my heart. I wish and hope that someday you have closure. None of this made sense to me when it happened and i still do not understand how 2 people and a large vehicle goes missing and not a single clue! Just wanted to say my thoughts hopes and prayers are with both families and congrats on your grandson.

I just watched Richard and Danielle's story on "Vanished" with Beth Holloway. It really tugged at my heartstrings! I was hoping to find a better outcome when I looked online for an update. I wish the saying "time heals all wounds" was true, but after going through a similar experience I know it is not. I will keep your families in my prayers and pray that the angels keep Richard and Danielle in their light. God bless you all
