Rich was a loving husband, doting father and grandfather, a cherished brother, and pillar of the family. He was a natural businessman, handyman, tinkerer, avid outdoorsman, lover of music and all things with an engine. His contagious laugh and sense of humor were second to none, up until the very end. He was a one-of-a kind legend who lit up every room he walked into. His beautiful spirit will be fiercely missed by all.
