SHERMAN, RICHARD HINSDALE died peacefully at home on September 17th. Born in Ithaca, NY to parents James Morgan Sherman and Katherine Keiper, he studied history at Cornell and Oberlin colleges, and continued with post-graduate studies at the University of Wisconsin. Thereafter he worked as a broadcaster in the Midwest, a stockbroker in New York City and Albuquerque, and in retirement as a substitute teacher in Albuquerque's public school system. His love of travel took him to sixty countries around the world and led him to Chile where he met the love of his life, Elba, who precedes him in death. He is survived by his daughter Carmen of Vienna, VA; son Morgan of Morro Bay, CA; and brother Thomas of Charlottesville, VA. He was a gentle-hearted intellectual with a great capacity for knowledge who was passionate about the world economy, diverse cultures and people, spanish literature, sports and chess. In Albuquerque he became a fixture of New Mexico chess culture, presiding over the Coronado Chess Club for twenty years, and organizing for even longer. He will be sorely missed. A small memorial service will be held at a future date in Vienna, VA, where he spent his final two years living happily with his daughter, son-in-law Serge, and grandsons. In lieu of flowers we ask people to make a donation in Richard's name to the Learner's Chess Academy of New Mexico where the funds will help low income children from throughout the state to learn and play the game of chess.
