This quote is from his daughter Danielle Riedel.
"I know no one is perfect but I feel like my daddy came really close. He was the perfect father and friend to everyone. Protesting and fighting for what he believed in. He was loved by so many because he had such a good heart. He was there
for everyone even when he wasn't feeling great, he never complained he just showed up for you. He was truly an amazing person and I love him and will miss him deeply."
