Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
 
Here are some fantastic images of St. Patrick’s Day Parade Grand Marshal Fr. Dave Richards ’90 and family during Sunday’s rainy revelry in downtown Buffalo. #niceumbrella 
 
In the main photo are Fr. Dave with, left to right, sisters Molly Kooshoian and Liz Sheehan and brother John Richards ’95. 

Fr. Dave selected his three siblings as well as his mother, Margaret Mary (Nash) Richards, as Deputy Marshals for the parade, which has been held since 1913 and is run by the United Irish American Association.
 
In the middle of the main photo is the Richards siblings’ uncle John Nash ’59, who is the brother of Margaret, and father of Jim Nash ’96, who took these outstanding photos.
 
Sheehan, mother of Tommy Sheehan ’25, is a Co-Chair of this year’s GAMBIT 50, while Molly Kooshoian, wife of Peter Kooshoian ’93 and mother of Peter Kooshoian ’24, was a Co-Chair of last year’s GAMBIT XLIX.
 
Peter Kooshoian ’93 was at the wheel of the convertible in the parade, with Mike O’Boyle playing St. Patrick. Margaret Richards is the third photo, waving from the left side of the convertible.
 
Also swipe to see the video of a special moment for Fr. Dave as he was encircled by the bagpipes of the Buffalo City Guard Gordon Highlanders.
 
The great video was captured by the man who was in Fr. Dave’s spot a year ago, 2024 Grand Marshal Liam Knott ’03.
 
Richards, a priest for 15 years, is the parochial vicar of the Catholic Community of Buffalo-North and has been the UIAA chaplain since 2009.
