Rich was a wonderful person. He could fix or build just about anything. He was probably the most relaxed person I’ve ever known. Very easy going. Loving husband to Pat. Great father and grandfather. Wonderful friend and brother in law. He will be greatly missed.

You absolutely never had to, but always did. You were a model of strength and selflessness that I am so glad I became a part of. Our kids were so lucky to have you as their Poppy, and the boys were honored to have you as their Dad. You wore every title with pride- and earned them all. You will be deeply missed. I never got to thank you for welcoming me in too- you never skipped a beat. You are the legend and thank you. Thank you for everything. I love you.

Rich was the most easy going, warm hearted, family oriented guy - who along with the rest of the family welcomed me with open arms. He will be so incredibly missed by all who loved him. ❤️ Words can’t express how sorry for your loss I am, Pat, David, Brad, Mandi, Berenice & family.
