Born on September 23, 1945, Rich lived a full and generous life defined by hard work and friendship. He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Anna Peschel.
Rich is survived by his sisters, Sandra and Colleen (Steve); as well as Marnie (Justine) and Cheyenne (Kyle). He was deeply grateful for the love and companionship of his many friends — including Mike Lyon, Gary Keck, Gene and Cindy, Renee, Scott, and Vicki— and for the community of friends he found at Parise’s Lounge, where laughter and good company were always close at hand.
As the proud owner of Rich’s Tree Service for more than 50 years, Rich built not just a business, but a legacy of dedication and integrity. He worked closely with trusted friends and colleagues Matt and Joe and took great pride in the relationships he built through his work.
Rich will be missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
