Tribute to Richard Belicose (RBC '64)

The Alumni Department at RBC was contacted by Ms. Katie Kearney, a student at Westlake High School in Austin, Texas.  Her note and project can be found below.


Dear Mr. Pisarcik,

My name is Katie Kearney and I am junior at Westlake High School in Austin, Texas. Every year, the junior English classes at Westlake read the book The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien and complete a Vietnam Memorial Project to honor those who served our country in Vietnam. 

Each student is assigned someone who died during the Vietnam war. I was assigned Richard Belicose, a 1964 graduate of Red Bank Catholic High School. 

I wanted to share the memorial video I made for Richard with the school so that any of his classmates or others who knew him would have the chance to view it.

Thank you,

Katie Kearney
