My deepest sorrow on the passing of Rich. I wish that I could of seen him more in the past couple of years. He was a good friend who would do whatever he could for you and I am going to miss him greatly. Russel Guilford
Rich, Our paths had gone in different directions over the past few years but you were thought of often with smiles and laughter. Your kind and generous nature will always be remembered. Hours sitting at the kitchen table discussing life. Thank you. I know Wilson was waiting for you and you’ll be remembered with smiles and tears. With affection Karla
Judy, Sarah, & Anthony; I am so sorry to hear about Rich. I know its hard but he is at peace. Rich was a good guy and you know what they say “only the good die young” and I know that is true because Anthony lost his dad at the age of 40. Donna Hopkins
So sorry to hear of Rich’s passing, my condolences to his family. He was too young and will be sorely missed. Rest in peace Rich. Francy
