If your sorrow can be lessened,
In some warm and special way,
By knowing that so many share,
In your loss with you today.

And if it brings you comfort,
When others show they care,
Please know that thoughts are with you,
And remember they are there.

With deepest sympathy and fond remembrances of "Uncle" Richard at work at CMAA.

My heartfelt condolances to the Jakubowski family for their loss. I have always had a special place in my heart for Richard as he hired me for my first job. Both he and Ron helped shape my work ethic that I carry with me to this day. Even as a teen I considered Richard a friend and have many special memories of making him chuckle when you knew he was trying to be serious. I owe part of my success today to Richard and Ron and wanted the family to know their impact in my life.
