Richard Tam -  Longtime Las Vegas real estate developer Richard Tam died July 5, 1999 in a Las Vegas hospital from complications following heart surgery. He was 83. Tam was born in Makawao, Maui. His mother later ran three curio shops on Oahu. Gilbert Tam, a relative and a senior vice president of Bank of Hawaii, said, "He's done a lot and has been a success and, unfortunately, those of us in Hawaii just did not know the man well enough. He could be a role model for many Hawaii residents. ... He just loved his alma mater, Punahou, and was always proud of Punahou. "He was just very well-respected by the University of Nevada at Las Vegas. We had juststarted discussions with him about possible contributions to the University of Hawaii." Richard Tam went to Las Vegas in the early 1950s as a vice president for National Dollar Stores of San Francisco, to negotiate a site and supervise building a retail store. Shortly after, he left the San Francisco corporation to launch his own real estate development operation, finally moving to Las Vegas from San Francisco in 1966. Tam had joined the San  Francisco-based National Dollar Store in 1939 at age 23. In later years, he concentrated on successfully developing hundreds of acres of land in North Las Vegas. A Hawaii business associate was Richard Kelley, chairman of Hawaii-based Outrigger Hotels and resorts, who invested with Tam in a Nevada hotel. Tam earlier attended Punahou School and the University of Hawaii. Later, he completed a bachelor's degree in civil engineering at Stanford. He also attended Columbia University's graduate school of business. He was a benefactor of both Punahou and the University of Nevada at Las Vegas, where the Richard Tam Alumni Center was named in his honor. Tam donated more than $1 million to UNLV and was presented an honorary UNLV law degree in 1995. The twice-married Tam is survived by longtime companion Geraldine "Jeri" Ehrecke,   daughter Judith Leslie Tam Sargent, sister Betty Wong and three grandchildren.
