We ask for your help, to preserve Richard Renda's memory and legacy, starting with his final resting place costs. Richard never asked for material compensation. He was a man who would give you his shirt off his back if you needed it. We are grateful for anything that can be provided, for this man to provide the recognition, and care that are his due. Thank you.

This is Richard Renda Totally Cool ®.

"Totally Cool ®. 'Something that Comes from the Heart.' That's what it's all about." - richard -

Richard Renda: Owner of the Totally Cool ® Trademark; Professional Fashion Stylist, Stylists & Company; Event Producer; Investigative Journalist, Writer; Editorial Director / Assignment Editor; Runway Training Specialist; Photo Journalist / Videographer; Longtime Member of The Press, Fashion Photographer/Videographer who was also front and center of the International Press Corps on the fashion runways; TV Show Producer; Crowd Control Specialist.

A man who lived four lifetimes, who valued contributing positivity back into the world, who respected everyone equally provided you earned that respect, who helped everyone to “get the shot”, even the newbies; who gave heart and soul; and even gave his life to change the world. In his words, just one example of this warrior:

“The Way to Perfect Pictures on a Fashion Runway.

‘Ladies and Gentleman ... if you are sitting in the Front Row, kindly: Uncross Your Legs, pull back your papers, and Keep Your Cell Phones Off The Runway. Thank you. And Enjoy the Show !’

That is the Statement - verbatim. Quote Unquote. Not more, Not less. It's called, ‘A Courtesy Hospitality Policy.’ It may take a little effort. But it makes the #Fashion #Designers Shows that much more Amazing. A Clean Runway. And you're not looking at the bottom of someone's dirty shoe or having a foot sticking out on the Runway as an eyesore. Then you see the Beautiful Designs at their Best ! aka Museum Quality pictures. And the better the Lighting the better the pictures, and the better the Experience. Totally Cool ®.”

Thank you.
