Nash, Family Medicine; Christopher Courtney, Internal Medicine Preceptor; Asela Russell, OB/GYN; David Burrows, Patient/Physician Communication Skills; Margarita Guarin, Pediatric Preceptor;  Denise Damek, Physical Exam Skills; Dennis Lyu, Role Model; Patrick Fernandez, Best Specialty Preceptor; Steven Lowenstein, Kris Wenzel Award; and Ben Honigman, Foundations of Doctoring Faculty Choice Award.

Richards established a memorial fund to support research at the CU Cancer Center after her husband, Michael, died in 2014.
