Happy Birthday Rich !

Rich - I have known you for over 30 years. I remember when I was just a kid and you helped me get my first good paying job that set me on the right track. I remember the coaching you gave me to keep that job and get into the union. A few years later when having my first child you were quick to volunteer to help me with some electrical work in the nursery. It was a no brainer to choose you as the Godfather of my first child, a task you took very seriously. More recently I remember how happy you were at Rene's wedding and thinking how that would be me someday. I guess somehow God thought he needed you more than we did and I know you are in a better place now. I hope you rest in peace and know we will meet again someday my brother.
