Maureen and Family

I just want to express how sad I am that Rich became so sick so fast.He was such a great guy.Even in his sickest days he never stopped thinking of others.He loved his garden and I enjoy looking at it and enjoyed listening to his knowledge on flowers.He was never to sick to tell me to stop and cut the flowers.I always had water ready for the visit and enjoyed taking them home.It was such an honor to meet such a great guy.He will always have a place in my heart also.
He loved you and worried about you Maureen and always was proud of his family.
I am so glad your daughter is staying with you,as Rich became sicker I worried about you also.
Please take care, and you know how to reach me if you need help.

Richard's untimely and early passing leaves a void in your family and in mine. He was a powerful presence, a wonderful grandfather, a loving father and husband. He treasured family above all else.

We will miss him deeply.

Our family (Ciccarelli) has lost yet another wonderful person much too soon. Richie's calm demeanor and dry sense of humor were just two of the many qualities he possessed. He was such a joy to be around and it was so evident that he truely loved Maureen; his kids; and, of course, his grandchildren. May you all find some comfort in the fact that he no longer suffers and that he is at peace. If it helps to know that others care and understand your pain - -we do.
With love & sympathy,
Irene & Gary Biddy

Rich was a stand-up guy and a friend to all who knew him. A top notch union man. He was second to none as a dedicated Teamster Steward of Local 25. Rest in peace my friend.
