For years, he was clear and direct to his loved ones and his pastor about how he wanted his send-off to go. “Dad wanted us to keep it short,” said his daughter, Grace Livingston-Nunley. “So we respect that.” More than...]]></description>

Winnowing down the thousands of images we gathered in Richmond's streets, parks, boardrooms, shores, restaurant halls and other spots was no easy task, and the results are no doubt imperfect.
